My name is Ibai Acevedo, I appeared in 84 by Barcelona and I am a photographer. The truth is that I would have loved to say that at the age of eight they gave me my first camera, but that’s it! At that time I played with dolls in the bathtub.

During the time when the photography and I did not coincide, I was on vacation in normal places, doing good, making friends and even becoming a graphic designer. All that happened to the past when there came a time when I was just thinking about taking pictures. Although saying “Something in me woke up” or “I felt a strong inner call” always looks better.

Today, like McGiver with the hardware store, I have found a language with which I save more than a thousand words for each image created. And if you cover your eyes forcing me to choose among the thousand, I will surely say that I pilot a gimmicky style halfway between realities and fictions.

With weakness for tonalities and textures to patent, my means are justified at the end. It does not matter to lie or tell the truth, the important thing is to transmit. Everything is easier than it seems, without posadas, refritos or complicated artifices.
