In "In This Place," the work of Alfredo De Stéfano presents traditional photographic formats that challenge conventional perspectives on time, space, and movement. Focusing on the desert, De Stéfano captures its paradoxical nature—its vast emptiness and propensity for rapid change due to extreme conditions. His approach, influenced by American abstract expressionism, explores themes of void and transformation. Born in Monclova, Coahuila, De Stéfano is a prominent Mexican photographer known for series like "Of Places Without a Future," "Remains of Paradise," "Replenishing Emptiness," and "Brief Chronicle of Light," all centered on desert landscapes. His work spans exhibitions worldwide and is included in diverse collections.
