British architect and artist who has lived in Barcelona since 2000. He works with organic matter and interrupts its natural decomposition processes to convert it into sculptures or collages that are backlit on the wall, thus creating a discourse on the struggle for domination between humans and nature. In 2018, he won the Fundació Vila Casas Sculpture Prize with his work Rambla. Senescència.
We can place Salvi Danés’ photography in the current of new documentary, a genre that rather than seeking a unique truth, as classic documentary would do, chooses to explore broader realities from a much freer, creative and experimental perspective. He plays with the possible interpretations of scenes and the narratives he captures, focusing on themes such as subjectivity and representation. He combines his own projects, published in books such as A les 8 al Bar Eusebi, with editorial commissions and his teaching work. He has been awarded many photographic prizes at a national and international level, such as at the World Photography Awards (2009, 2012) and the IPA (International Photography Awards) (2012).
