Verified profile


NEEEV is an exhibition consisting of 18 large-format photographs taken by Begoña Zubero during her two-month residency in Iraq, at the "Moving Artist Foundation", which seeks to connect plastic artists from conflict zones with plastic artists from the Basque Country .

Specifically, this photographic series shows the city of Mosul, at the moment in which its reconstruction begins, after the terrible offensive that defeated the Islamic state. The moment in which the city surprisingly returns to a daily life that we imagine impossible, but which rises again among the cracks of destruction, thanks to the power of the human condition.

It is not a purely documentary project, even if it is partly based on photojournalism, as the photographer has never worked with material so linked to conflict zones.

This work is intended to be a plastic interpretation of a very present reality of which apparently infinite information reaches us, but which in fact is very distorted and unknown. A kaleidoscope from wide angle to telephoto lens to bring the viewer closer to the feeling of uncertainty and dualism enveloped in a perverse historical repetition.
