Analogue photography, lomography, soup film. Who would have told me that I was going to learn from these issues in a little cafe? And what better than teaching this world a friend of yours. When the body told me that I was going to bring the exhibition to Pamplona, I didn't want to miss the opportunity to meet Iosune de Goñi. You don't usually have to go too far to find an artist friend, but a friend who makes his work public isn't that easy. In addition, most of the time we lack time to meet him and we have too many bad excuses. But this time I only needed 10 minutes to reach the Café Cream in the San Juan district of Pamplona. The coffee worker served us a little bit of coffee, trying to calm down on Sunday. What else can you ask for?

I found the bodies hanging from the walls. They were not, however, mere portraits of the bodies of human beings, not even images of static landscapes. In fact, Iosun understands bodies beyond human beings: trees, ferns, jellyfish, all that constitutes nature is body. But we are not unique and individual units, but living beings that move each other. Without the other, we are not. Beyond the ends we see with our eyes, we are bodies that break physical and psychological boundaries and mix together, bodies that repeat, unite and overlap. Thus, hands and ferns, arms and branches, eyes and flowers, skin and water come together in the photographs of Iosune.

Bertiz, Urbasa, Orgi. Iosune is lost in the forests of Navarra, where the reflection of herself and the bodies of women is found. Their relationships with the earth and the body are very present in their creation and try to unify them through a special technique. The idea of the soup film is that the film has a chemical interaction with some fluid to produce an unexpected effect on the lomography and get unexpected results. Photographer Brigitte Bloom knew this technique when she discovered it. In fact, in the development he mixed several photographs taken in the Float On series (Nevada, EE.UU. ), obtaining amazing images that seem typical of the dream world. This creative process is based on experimentation and surprise, as you can never know what is going to come out of the mixture you've made. The series Bodies brings together the universe of purple, green, blue and pink colors, and to achieve this, De Goñi has used black tea, infusion of red fruits, cherry juice and ruler. As he himself says, they are images taken over and over again and after many attempts. They have been tried for the umpteenth time, but they have not lost the magic of chance.

After his presentation at Astra de Gernika and Artgia de Vitoria-Gasteiz, he has had a hard time finding a space to exhibit in Pamplona. The Café Cream will not be a great and famous room, but it keeps a great creator on its white walls. If you have the opportunity to zoom in, we will wait until July 1. Then, who knows what casualties they can meet you again.
