JOAN CALSINA

Photographer and film creator specialized in editorial,
documentary & experimental projects. 

Disrupting narratives and energy through my interaction between the subjects and the environment. 
As an author I use photography with an expressive, 
observant and inquiry sense from the vision of myself towards the world.

NAKTIS (On going)



“Tenia l'estranya sensació de trobar-me en un camí que coneixia prou bé i en canvi tenia por d’ensopegar. 
Caminar de nit és una manera excel.lent de convertir una zona familiar en desconeguda. 
Ja que cada canvi en la llum de la lluna genera nous terrenys i reorganitza les zones de foscor total. Cap al final de la passejada nocturna, vaig veure com es materialitzava l’alé sota la llum de la lluna. Vaig mirar un arbre que em semblava que coneixia bé, però tenia un aspecte diferent de com el recordava.”




“I had the strange sensation of finding myself on a path I knew quite well and where I was afraid of stumbling.
Walking at night is an excellent way to turn a familiar area into an
unfamiliar one. 
As each change of moonlight generates new terrain and re-organizes the areas of total darkness. Towards the end of the night walk, I saw the ale materialize under the moonlight. I looked at a tree that I seemed to know well, but it looked different from how I remembered it”.
