This project is dedicated to Valencia and one of the oldest and most authentic districts of the city - district of Cabanyal, which buildings were declared a Site of Cultural Interest in 1993. Creating my photo collages I was embroidering different geometrical forms and lines on watercolour paper around printed photography of the Cabanyal buildings. In this way I tried to emphasise the colourful geometry and the variety of architectural forms, the special atmosphere and authenticity of the Cabanyal as a place out of time.
