Pau de la Calle
Coexist
4 October - 6:30 pm
Municipal Theater of Lloret de Mar
Main Auditorium
The project Coexistdocuments the coexistence between people and animals in the Gaia Sanctuary, a vegan rescue and recovery center for animals considered to be farm animals and that have been victims of livestock exploitation, abuse or abandonment.
Based on this project and his experience in the sector, he will talk about the coexistence between documentary photography and the Daily News. He will explain how these two disciplines can be combined and how they feed off each other. How this convergence allows documentary photography to be carried out today, in which documentary work is very precarious.
Pau de la Calle is a freelance photographer based in Barcelona. He works on current affairs news and long-term documentary projects. He is interested in human stories, such as social conflicts, migration movements and the growing global climate crisis.
