Alba Galocha x El País Semanal.

When I was two years old my parents took me to Lanzarote to see if my extreme asthma would get better. It did – as soon as I got off the plane it disappeared. For the following years I would fly to the Canary Islands the day after school ended and returned the day before it started again. I still spend my summers there with my family.

This year marked César Manrique‘s 100th anniversary and I flew to Lanzarote with a bunch of my closest friends to shoot this story around some of his most iconic landmarks. I love the story and I think the opener is the most beautiful photograph I’ve ever taken.

This wouldn’t have happened without Mónica Calle Mollythproducer who produced this for me (thank you, thank you, thank you).
