The first word I learned to say is guaita. My paternal grandmother would take me for a walk in the trolley, and as we wandered around she would point at things with her finger and say: “Guaita Laia, guaita!”. She spoke a particular Catalan, she would say guaita instead of mira (look at). Guaitar means to watch carefully, analysing what is observed. Vigilant. Jo guaito ︎︎

A reverential gesture towards the diverse grounds of Chapada Diamantina



A catalogue of 52 eyes organised in a series of 26 diptychs. They are formed by my shadow at noon, when I was taking photographs of the variety of Igatu’s grounds. Igatu is situated in the Chapada Diamantina, an area with one of the world’s oldest geological formations.

Photographic typology.
Limited edition of 26 photobooks, each copy comes with a print of a diptych, numbered and signed.
Work in progress (getting printed!)
