Raul Izkierdo has modeled a visual language that leaves no stone unmoved. Through contemporary art photography and visual communication, perception of the hidden aesthetics of being is captured, using a “photo-graphic“ medium, but not eluding the long process of self-question. “A long analogical process, a practical, natural metaphor of life itself, allows me to recurrently ask myself what human behavior is, and, in the process, wrestle with the dialectic of my consciousness“.
