Château’s Lower Gallery
Juan San Juan Rebollar
published at 28/10/2019
Digital artist and photographer Juan San Juan Rebollar has taken part in a whole host of solo and group exhibitions, both in Mexico and abroad, especially in Denmark, Spain, the United States and Cuba.
In the last few years, he has dedicated much of his work to the evolutionary process of the life of plants.
A photographer who is passionate about plant forms, he is fascinated by the appearance, contours and configuration of leaves and flowers, and by the secret and often ephemeral architecture of the wonders of nature. In particular, he observes and takes photographs of the blossoming and degeneration process of inflorescences, giving rise to highly graphic and very poetic images.
The photos presented as part of this exhibition play on infinite shades of black and white, magnifying the pleats, creases and folds of the living material including leaves, petioles and bracts, as well as the petals, buds and corollas of flowers.
