Días presents a tonal collage of places and days by Spanish photographer Pia Riverola. Renowned for her evocative, hazy imagery, the delicately-sequenced Días uses motion, blur, and dappled light to create a sensory and synaesthetic experience, transporting you to a memory long-forgotten, plucked from time. Riverola’s dreamy images, soaked in atmosphere, evoke feelings of distance and travel: from neon-lit rainy Japanese nights, a Mediterranean breeze lifting a Spanish tablecloth, or Italian drizzle softly falling beneath an umbrella in a Roman garden.
A self-taught photographer, Riverola’s images contain a casual offhandedness; candid like an overheard conversation, intimated and muffled like a late-night call with a friend, celebratory and in wonder of the world. As if peeling away the layers, the days of toil and tribulation to see the world anew, Días feels cleansing and deep in its essence, joyful yet sombre in the way Riverola’s oblique evocations roll away before your eyes. With Días, Riverola continues to explore her passion for capturing the essence of place, inviting readers to immerse themselves in the poetic beauty of her journeys.
