José Maria Lamo de Espinosa
Fotógrafo Contemporáneo
Fotógrafo español especializado en blanco y negro. Su mirada descubre lo invisible, poniendo en valor imágenes que pasan desapercibidas mediante una búsqueda constante de formas, ritmos y contrastes.
Nacido en 1953, mi relación con la fotografía se inicia en 1973. Es una relación íntima, personal hasta finales del 2021, momento en que decido salir del entorno de mi ordenador, cámara y pantalla dando a conocer mi trabajo.
En mayo de 2022 iba a tener lugar mi primera exposición colectiva en Madrid. Un ligero infarto el 23 de abril, apenas 12 días antes de la exposición, me tiene en el hospital tres días durante los cuales el debate seguir o no ocupó muchas horas. Horas en las que la vista del reloj redondo, blanco con agujas negras, sobre una pared gris claro me ayudó a centrarme en lo realmente importante ayudándome a tomar la decisión. Sí, iba a celebrar la exposición.
Y fue la decisión acertada, una experiencia única y sugestiva que me animó a seguir por el camino iniciado. Desde entonces han sido siete exposiciones colectivas más y una individual en septiembre de 2023.
