In this project, I worked in Colliure, France guided for a week with the american photographer Todd Hido. I made an approach to the figure and memory of the great Spanish poet Antonio Machado who rests in this same city since 1939.

Shortly after starting, the evidence of these kind people who make up this beautiful place made me understand why the poet stayed there until his dead. The work turn to be about them, who lie
in here, right beside the poet and who welcomed a Spanish lover of beauty and letters in times of persecution and anguish.
