Thousands of nooks and crannies discovered on foot. That is how Leo Garcia retraced all the neighbourhoods of the city to build the new image of Betevé.
Looking for a different look, avoiding well-known monuments and images, Leo Garcia moves us away from Barcelona as a brand and brings us closer to the city’s mindset through his snapshots. This selection of images is a sample of The imperfect gaze, a photo essay on the city’s seventy-three districts. Promoting authenticity, the beauty of everyday life and real engagement with the people, it ended up showing imperfection in a premeditated way, as none of us are perfect.
