Article Abstract:
Javier Valhonrat uses the human body as a photographic subject to produce an image that may not fit conventional notions of the body. Basic ingredients of subject, light, and time can be manipulated to create images where the body is radically changed. Kitchen matches used as the only light source for photographs with long exposures create images where time itself is defined by photographic image.

Article Abstract:
Eduard Ibanez's photographs of the human body and, specifically, of individual parts of the human body can provide insights into how the body experiences the world. Layers of transparencies and images on top of each other in the final photographs reveals how the experience of life is an extension of the body's many dimensions. They suggest the body and the world it experiences are one fabric.

Article Abstract:
The photographs of Chema Madoz reveal the activity that exists within inert objects. Photographs of objects provide an insight that objects exist in a dynamic realm between desire and the world. Such objects may be shoes, a ladder against a mirror, books artfully piled to form an arch, and a table whose legs are set in glasses of water.
