Interior
Book Summary
Award-winning Argentine photographer Adriana Lestido invites us on a visual and emotional journey through her lens. "Interior" brings together over a hundred photographs documenting a journey from the north to the south of the country, commissioned by the INSUD Group. More than a simple geographical record, the work captures the essence of the places where the group's foundations work on environmental preservation and the fight against diseases such as Chagas. With a prologue by writer Guillermo Saccomanno, this book is a profound exploration of human commitment and the beauty that emerges in the most authentic territories.
What is it about?
"Interior" is the result of an extensive trip by photographer Adriana Lestido, commissioned by the INSUD Group to document their social and environmental work. The work transcends mere reportage to become an immersive experience. Lestido, known for her ability to coexist with her subjects and capture their moods, portrays not only the landscapes and communities, but also the intimacy of the processes and the people working on environmental preservation and the fight against Chagas. The book is structured as a visual journey that moves from the vastness of the landscape to the human detail, offering a poetic and deeply respectful look at often invisible realities. Guillermo Saccomanno's prologue contextualizes this journey, comparing Lestido's commitment to that of great artists who immerse themselves in their subject matter.
