ENTRY DESCRIPTION
"There is the sea
From one wave to the other there is the time of life
From its waves to my eyes there is the distance of death."
(Fragment of Monument to the sea by Vicente Huidobro)

This minimalist photography was born after two years of work by photographer and artist Esteban Amaro, who has traveled to the Litoral de los Poetas, home to the great Chilean poets Vicente Huidobro, Pablo Neruda and Nicanor Parra; from Mirasol to Santo Domingo, in a search to portray the central Chilean coast, with the premise of rethinking photography and in particular the image, as an instrument to capture the immensity and time as protagonists of the series.

A diffuse mirror of light and water, the current, the time, a flock of birds, the coastal edge layers, make up the peaceful series together with the waves that lash gently but constantly as the hours pass, day after day, from the beginning to the end of the times.
