David Rodríguez
Summertime
Bio: David Rodríguez was born and raised on the island of La Palma. To many people, this may sound exotic, but to him, it has always been "normal." Although he admits that living surrounded by water can be unique, determines how to think, act, and create. Meticulous to the point of exhaustion, David Rodríguez does not like improvisation or leaving anything to chance. “I plan each of my sessions thoroughly, down to the last detail. I start my creative process from an idea, which can be a concept, the stanza of a song, the sequence of a movie or a photograph that I have seen. This initial idea matures until it takes shape ”. He loves surreal and fashion photography. His main influences are Guy Bourdin, Wille Christie, Man Ray and Joe Gaffney. “Summertime” (2023) In these photographs we can see a bather in a coastal environment. This session is meticulously planned, with very special care in lighting, influenced by Greek sculpture and traditional painting, with some touches of the influence of the Art Deco movement and Dadaism. The psychology of the character, theatricality and the use of light prevail, creating a parallel aspirational universe in which the subject becomes mysterious and attractive.
