In “The Iberians,” photographer Candy Lopesino Sabin embarks on a visual odyssey, documenting the artist’s travels through this rich and diverse landscape. The series serves as a visual sketchbook, capturing the essence of the Iberian Peninsula as experienced through the lens of an observant wanderer.
By exploring concepts such as territory, border, light, memory, and identity, Lopesino Sabin delves into the heart of Iberia, seeking to understand its people and culture through the eyes of an outsider.

In “The Iberians,” Lopesino Sabin invites viewers on a journey of rediscovery, unearthing the commonalities that bind these two countries together in a shared geographical space.
Through a series of incredible shots, the photographer reveals the unique places, people, and cultural realities that define the Iberian Peninsula. This exploration serves as a testament to the human condition and the ways in which our experiences are shaped by the lands we inhabit.
