Having grown up in an artist's residency in northern Almería, from the age of 4 I have been constantly surrounded by artists from all over the globe, which has shaped me to have a very open mind as well as an interesting perspective on life, but has also given me very strong social skills, which is a result of having been brought up learning from all these different people.Being both my parents’ artists, it was only normal for me to follow in their footsteps. At the age of 11 I discovered the world of photography and cinema, and fell immediately in love. By the time I reached my last two years of high school I was eager to leave behind my small rural town in southern Spain and move to Madrid, to study a degree in Audio-visual Communication.The world of photography and film has always peaked my curiosity and interest, that being from a technical stand point, especially in the field of analogue photography, for example with wet plate collodion, trichrome photography, darkroom solarizations or extreme long exposures using pin hole cameras; but also from an art/documentary perspective, as can be seen on my website, where you can find a photographic documentary series in the form of a photo book titled "The future of industrialization: the limits we must not exceed", about the role "first sector industry" plays in modern day society and the effects that it has both from a social perspective as from a climate perspective.One of my photographs was part of the "End of Year" exhibition at the Glasgow Gallery of Photography in 2022, as well as another one being shortlisted for a competition titled "Aguas Urbanas" by PHotoESPAÑA in 2023.As I mentioned before, I have strong social skills which allow me to work efficiently in a team. My mind is always open to new ideas and I am constantly searching for new ways to learn and improve. I seek to surround myself by people who I can admire and who can help me grow inside the audio-visual industry.My work can be found on my website: solomonbeckmann.com
