Mind's Eye / Galerie Adrian Bondy presents the exhibition Présences by Nacho Gómez Sales. The photographer introduces his work as follow.

On the other hand, alongside this analytical aspect, there is…
Today I invite you to return to the beginning of my tests and research into alternative developers. In fact, a year ago, I carried out my first processings in this type of developer. I started by using old expired black and white and color film. I had carefully inherited them from my photographer father, telling me that these emulsions could perhaps be useful to me later. Forty years have passed,…

Each generation attributes new meanings to art and needs to retake the entire historical…
