Vidal Rivera is a photographer based in Mexico City. When he first began photographing, he was driven mostly by curiosity and immediacy, photographing what he saw, without thinking too much about a framework. Along the way, he realized that the camera was not a tool to record reality, but a space where experience could slow down to create new perspectives. For him, the documentation is a way of placing oneself in the world, of relating to what surrounds us, and allowing the emotional dimension to emerge through the encounter. His work is guided by an affective charge and trusting the image as a space where perception and memory keep our stories alive.
