Shadows' World (I), Pastrana

The world of shadows allows us to deepen into fantasy and let all the creativity of our imagination fly. Shapes and figures are projected onto other planes and acquire an unexpected role and personality that leads us to forget the true origin of the projection. The geometric transformation that light applies to objects deforms and twists the result, dramatically altering the relationship between them.

One hot June day, walking through Pastrana, a beautiful village of Guadalajara in Spain, I was surprised by this image when the sun was still close to its zenith and I was captivated by the accentuated deformation produced by the shadow of the electric wire. Of Pastrana it is worth highlighting its historical past, its charming corners and its quiet streets and steep alleys. Truly endearing and suggestive!!
