Madrid, 1965.
José Luis Santalla belongs to the generation that, beginning his career in the eighties, has used photography as a versatile and flexible tool, in an imaginative exploration of its narrative possibilities. His series have followed one another as a search for limit possibilities (Manipulations) or in which duplication, since the introduction of the idea of the mirror, generates possible spaces for the imagination (Diptychs). Many of his images have tended to build allegories in which objects take on a different meaning and use, opting more for developing a discourse of stylistic fragmentation that would allow him narrative versatility from which to address specific issues, tensions, and contradictions (In Silence ). Oscillating between the inert and the animated, and precisely from his latest series, A happy world y Fugas , his work acquires a denser thickness, linked to a meditation on values and models in contemporary society.
