Rodríguez Calero Statement The images selected are contemplative observations, reflecting complex moments, exploring the themes of sexuality, gender, politics, social customs and mysticism. The Selfie is multilayered in the scope of the subject matter and challenges the preconceived notions of gender identity and tackles the masculine / feminine dynamics to portray both in equal measure of strength and fragility. The imagery also evokes a range of symbolic themes of the classical and urban origin. The empowerment of the mystical and emotional evolves from the act of their own creation and defines a distinctive quality that presents traditions of the past, while representing the voice of a new generation. The iconographic mission is to build bridges between cultures using the universal spirit. These personal and provocative images from archetypical narratives create a new reality and project a universal message, that is a testament, homage and continuous struggle for LGTBQ’s journey.
