"The Light of divine encounter, fraternal harmony. Belenus and Frigga, the gods of the tomb of Fortune. The Essence of the Creator, the root of life". "Essentia" was shot during the fall of 2024 in La Herrería Forest, Madrid. I use elements such as light, shadow, textures, tone, gravity, and time. ICM and long exposure allow me to transcommunicate with different states of consciousness. I obtain a RAW file, without using multiple exposures, Photoshop layers, or generative AI, which I edit in Lightroom Classic. Three works from this collection have been exhibited at Photo London Fair 2025.

Biography

Roberto Conde was born in Madrid in September 1978. He shares with his father a passion for fishing and mushroom picking. These experiences in nature are the root of his fascination for the secrets hidden in the lakes under their waters, the forests at their roots, the ancestral powers of the rocks... At the end of 2016 he starts a spiritual journey through photography. Experimentation with different photographic techniques and meditation allow him to express the landscape as a dialogue between different states of consciousness.
