A Magazine Curated By: BAILES
Date
Jul 2025
Description
BAILES is an editorial project featured in A Magazine Curated By, documenting the intricate regalia and movement of traditional dance. Photographer Diego Bendezu employs a diverse range of technical approaches to capture these performances, balancing static, high-contrast portraiture with kinetic, time-based imagery. The series leans into long-exposure techniques to map the rhythm of the performers, resulting in fluid light trails and deliberate motion blur against minimalist studio backgrounds. Other compositions utilize soft, directional lighting to highlight the tactile qualities of woven textiles, embroidery, and elaborate ceremonial headpieces, contrasting vibrant saturated tones with stark monochromatic frames.
