The light painting no es algo nuevo, de hecho, tiene mas de 100 años, pero en Colombia aún es muy poco conocido y practicado; el fisiograma o pintura con luz como también se le conoce a esta técnica fotográfica consiste en la creación de fotografías a partir del uso de elementos que generen luz dentro de espacios con poca luz.
El fotógrafo pereirano Ricardo Diosa Muñoz es uno de los grandes apasionados de esta técnica fotográfica y ha dedicado su vida profesional a la exposición y promoción de este arte, Ricardo estudio fotografía en España, país al cual emigro una vez termino sus estudios secundarios en Colombia, en este ha logrado realizar 5 importantes exposiciones en compañía de sus colegas Rafael de la sierra y Andrés Cortegana; además de haber participado en el proyecto “Santander es Luz” con motivo del día internacional de la luz.
Diosa muñoz is passionate about light painting, as he himself says: “For me it is something more than a photographic technique, it is something more than creativity, for me; It is being connected with all my senses, it is capturing an idea in your photography, it is freedom when creating, it is generating in my soul that feeling of happiness, of mental health, the word that would best define what I feel about light painting. It’s mental magic.” Sustains Muñoz
The passion for this art has brought him back to Colombia with a project called “Colombia is Light” with which he aims to make this technique known in greater depth in the country and provide spaces for new artists to emerge in this discipline.
The requirements to be able to participate in this project is basically to have the enthusiasm of wanting to try something new, since as he himself says, all you need is passion and a photographic bed of any denomination, even a cell phone, is viable to be able to practice this technique.
Ricardo is currently looking for those passionate people who want to be part of his project. If you are one of them, we invite you to contact him via WhatsApp at the number +34 689 153404.
