Ana Matey Marañón Biography

Madrid, Spain 1978

Young, Spanish photographer Ana Matey Marañon explores timeless themes such as the subconscious and man?s relationship with nature through series of experimental images.

In her own words:

"SUEÃ?OS" or ?Dreams? depicts the evolution of a dream as the night progresses.. the dreamer looks inside subconscious where she discovers her most intimate feelings and profound fears ... "NATURALEZAS" or ?Natures? is a reaction against a world void of feelings, a world in which we champion the advance of technology and machines that make our daily lives more comfortable without stopping to consider the cost. In ?Naturalezas?, the man follows his primary instincts and leaves the urban jungle in which he inhabits day in day out in search of nature and a more pure existence.

Ana Matey Marañon has exhibited in Spain, Portugal and the U.S.
