Telluric presence

“Looking through Pedro Pegenaute’s beautiful photographs, in the confinement of Pamplona, we survey the solitude of architecture, we see inner light as an expression of life, sometimes a minor human presence, emptiness, abandoned remains…
I stop at another moment: the expression of the force and the energy of nature, which, over the silence, freely unfolds over us.
Telluric presence—sometimes forgotten but, here, sovereignly present.”
Josep Lluís Mateo
