BENVINGUTS, ESTIMATS TURISTES

Photographers David Arquimbau and Ester Villaescusa look at each other in this visual essay on the island and its contrasts. Arquimbau, in his series, Estimats turistes, shows summer and its transforming influence in human behavior, the power of the tourism industry imposing aesthetics in the architecture, in the complementary offer and even in its users. Meanwhile, Villaescusa contrasts it with “WELCOME, BIENVENUE, WELCOME, BENVENUTI WILLKOMMEN, BENVINGUTS. She is afraid of ugliness, in fact she is attracted by everything that is erratic and that departs from the canon of beauty, showing the parts of Menorca that cost more to accept as our own in the imaginary Mediterranean paradise in which we are submerged

David Arquimbau. Its radius of action and work as a photographer is limited to the island of Menorca, where his universe belongs. He observes and talks about the reality that surrounds him and about himself with knowledge of the territory. 

Ester Villaescusa. Professional photographer and digital photography retoucher, her personal work is generated from looking at and tracing the landscape, always with a sense of humor and an apparently distant gaze.
