This series, made in the Spanish Canary island of Fuerteventura focuses on the built and altered environments that reflect everyday life on the island. Rather than photographing people directly, the work looks at the spaces they inhabit- farm yards, houses, doorways and the tools and improvised structures people construct. The surrounding terrain becomes a way of describing presence through absence.
The photographs are rendered in monochrome and composed with a consistent, frontal approach. This method is intentional to emphasise surface, texture and the relationship between objects and their settings: sun bleached walls, worn materials, repaired elements and overall traces of repeated use. The landscape appears dry and exposed, with high contrast, and the structures within it of ten suggest adaptation within limited resources and persistent harsh conditions.
Across the series, signs of labour , maintenance and endurance are embedded in these environments. personal and economic realities are not shown directly but inferred through what is left visible- arrangements of objects, marks of weathering, and the practical, unemotional ordering of space. The images do not isolate individual stories, but instead point to a broader condition in which daily life is shaped by the constraint, resilience and continued negotiation with the environment.
