In physical exhibitions, these photos have only been presented in Santiago, Temuco, Puerto Varas, and now digitally on the Outdoor Index blog. It is an honor for our team and blog to have Pablo and all the other collaborators who undoubtedly see in nature and in our Chilean heritage a list of guiding values to grow as a person and as a society.

“The Chilean territory has been, for years, a source of inspiration for my photographic work. In it, I do not seek the great views and landscapes. On the contrary, I seek to move away from the obvious to approach the abstract. To abandon the breadth to focus on the minimum."

My intention is to build a new image with the elements provided by the landscape and the moment. An image that moves away from the merely documentary. A real image, certainly, but not for this reason literal. A look that does not require interventions or effects during or after the shot.

In this same aesthetic line - of few figurative elements - I developed the series Geometry of the moment and Inhabit the immensity. The latter speaks precisely of how Chileans inhabit and intervene in our territory. How the human scale is present in front of the vastness of the landscape that is lost in the infinite”.

Pablo's biography:

Born in Santiago in 1964, he is the creator of the concept Geometry of the moment, which defines an aesthetic and a particular view of the Chilean landscape.

Graduated in Civil Engineering from the Catholic University of Chile, he has dedicated almost thirty years exclusively to his great passion: discovering, knowing, and photographing the natural and cultural heritage of Chile. The above has resulted in a deep portrait of the Chilean identity, which has been widely disseminated in books and exhibitions.

His photographs show a particular vision of the landscape and nature of Chile. A look that, without effects or interventions, escapes from the obvious and approaches the abstract. A minimalist look that seeks in the landscape the geometry defined by space and the moment.
