PHOTOGRAPHY IN VITRO

"We live surrounded by an infinite amount of  transparent layers of reality."



The arts, usually pretend to create a subjetive interpretations of reality or a new reality based in the fiction. Photojournalism and documental photography try to be more faithful than other genres, but they don't renounce to get advantage  of the resources that the reality offers itself. Mirrors and glasses are specially good to ad textures, colors or to combine elements to create virtual scenes. 
I like to capture these kind of images and I consider that this method to work is not better or worse than manipulate the image in postproduction, it's only an option more to achieve the goals that the photographer seeks. In my opinion, the main dificulty to use these resources is avoiding to fall in topical and boring images that don't tell us any message or story.
