With The Voices Of Other Eternals

Colombian-born fine-art photographer Juan Sebastian is debuting “With the Voices of Other Eternals'' at SCOPE Miami Beach in partnership with Photo Basel, Switzerland’s first and only art fair dedicated to photography based art, from December 5-10, 2023. Sebastian showcased 9 evocative and theatrical life size portraits of veiled bodies shot in grand landscapes. The collection invites viewers to connect with their lost childhood fantasies, sparking a collective reflection on the delicate balance between wonder and disillusionment, and the bittersweet realization that accompanies adulthood.

Inspired by the magical realism found in the works of literary luminaries such as Gabriel García Márquez and Isabel Allende, Sebastian masterfully blurs the boundaries between dreams and reality. Through his unique lens, he conjures a visual symphony where light and dark harmonize, unveiling the fantastical essence of both dreams and the subconscious. Above all, theater is the beating heart of Sebastian's artistry, guiding him in the choreography of veils and revelations. His haunting and ineffable photographs explore concepts of heritage, sexuality, and taboo, unfurling the transformative power of self-discovery. Each portrait, shrouded in ambiguity and mystery, challenges preconceived notions of selfhood, gender, and narrative.
