We are a mirror.
And at the same time, I feel reflected.
When we look, we hear an echo, a murmur that shows something inside us.
We recognize ourselves.
Miquel looks at the forest and feels how the trees talk, how they look.
The air, the sounds, the light they reflect, invite us to interact, fabulate and mimic each other.
Trees speak of an ephemeral time and the fact of being reborn.
Some of them are more blurred than others.
The forest surrounds and facilitates this encounter with oneself.
And these images are the testimony of those fragile sounds that accompany it.
They are flexible and transparent, like air.
Miquel Badia
Miquel Badia i Perpinyà (Terrassa, 1969) began his photographic training at the IDEP school in Barcelona (1994), while he began image studies at the Terrassa School of Photography (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya) ending with the first promotion of the speciality of Communication and Architecture (1997).
