‘A bunny’s dream’
A bunnies dream’ by Mateo Ruiz Gonzalez – 2020
Full of calm yet slightly uncanny scenes ‘A bunny’s dream’ sets out in New Zealand to capture the grand beauty of multiformity and the precise nature of the land – places of wild and romance, where the absence is the main character. Mateo Ruiz Gonzalez is an emerging photographer born in Bogota, Colombia, educated in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and living in Brooklyn, New York, who aptly navigates the disciplines of storytelling, editorial, and fine-art photography.
His work reflects the realistic way he observes his environment, blending quietly with his surroundings and taking advantage of natural light to capture real colors. He enforces design rules and structure in his framing while keeping a candid and organic feel, seeking constant harmony in his work. Using poetic mediums, Ruiz Gonzalez explores the beauty of unassuming moments; often capturing harsh scenes with a delicate eye, and bringing new value to often-overlooked settings.
