The sperm whale, a traveler through Baja California, can dive more than 2,000 meters in search of food, holding its breath for over an hour. With every descent it carries nutrients back to the surface, fertilizing the sea and sustaining invisible chains of life. This giant, whose migrations connect distant oceans, reminds us that protecting it means protecting the balance that keeps our planet alive.

Camilo Diaz, born 1981 in Medellin, Colombia, studied Visual Arts at the National University of Colombia and further Fashion Photography, Advertising and Film Studies at various Universities in Buenos Aires, Argentina. His artistic work focuses on the intimate portrayal of people and their immediate lives and surroundings. More than a depiction, his photographs reveal an intimate discovery and allow shared momentum. His subjects are not strangers but rather people with whom he enters a story.
