The Art of Víctor Santamaría

Overview

Víctor Santamaría González was born in Málaga, Spain, on September 21, 1974. Award-winning artist and Industrial Engineer. After having lived in several countries, from Panama he is fully dedicated to the development of what he defines as Direct Existential Photography and poetry. The assimilation of the cultures known by the artist and his own life experience give him a very distinct perspective in understanding human nature, awakening a vital need to immortalize it in a real and direct way. Víctor Santamaría captures with a special sensibility the timeless beauty of the human being and natural world in a wonderful poetic composition. Inspired by a lifelong passion for photography and classical painting arts, discover through the camera, the most pragmatic and instant way to capture reality in a direct photography and shows it with a different and unique style. Naturally, without forcing the shooting and through an immediate recognition of the scene, the artist achieves real, inspiring and alive photographs. Víctor Santamaría develops a human landscape where the person and the environment come together in a fine work with an inherent romanticism between the individual and his own existence, which invites to a deep reflection. Our photographic artworks are available printed in limited edition, being numbered and signed by Víctor Santamaría with his own handwriting. The fine art has a certificate of authenticity assuring its conservation and archival integrity according to the highest standard. Photographs are printed using the best-quality fine art canvas and papers with the most beautiful and outstanding results in colours, contrasts and textures. "Photography is a sophisticated and esoteric medium. The poetic creation itself is the real purpose".
