Cristina Stolhe

Bio

"Today I take photos, tomorrow who knows."

In her work, Cristina Stolhe (Pontevedra, ES, 1993) examines the experience of daily life through photography. Using analogue and digital cameras and mobile phone camera in particular, she explores the true essence of life while at the same time speculating, conjecturing with “what’s there?” imbuing her images with emotions that may not be immediately apparent. Stolhe’s scenes evoke a sense of nostalgia, family feeling, yet they also express the intimacy of the present moment viewed through a slow and voyeuristic lens, attempting to appreciate the moment and capture it for eternity. In one way it invites us to consider how our individual experiences and memories make up our lives and identities.

In 2018 her first book, Random Pictures Book, was published by Terranova, as a paean to mobile phone photography, and in which she explores today’s overconsumption of images.
