El legado del Apartheid dejo atrás esta herencia: los ghettos de la marginalidad social de la gente de color que aprendió a vivir, convivir y sobrevivir en las peores condiciones imaginables.
Hoy poco ha cambiado, dominan las bandas juveniles, trafican con alcohol, drogas y armas de fuego. El SIDA gana terreno, la higiene, la sanidad e incluso el agua potable es un lujo que está al alcance de muy pocos.
Sin embargo, a pocos kilómetros de estas zonas la vida en las ciudades sudafricanas late cómodamente con sus lujosas casas, calles anchas, centros comerciales modernos, zonas de ocio, hospitales etc...
Los “Townships” son manchas grandes donde reina la desigualdad, simplemente están allí y el gobierno poco hace por intentar cambiar esa desafortunada situación. Las chabolas crecen a un ritmo frenético, las casas prometidas por el gobierno no tanto.
Retratos de los suburbios Datos del Autor
Británico de nacionalidad, nació en Zambia en 1964 cuando aún era colonia Británica, de madre española y padre sudafricano. En 1969 se trasladó a vivir a Sudáfrica donde permaneció hasta los 19 años de edad. En 1983 vino a vivir a España. Comenzó con su afición a la fotografía a una edad muy temprana, desde entonces ve y vive la vida a través del objetivo. Es miembro de AFOCO (Asociación Fotográfica Cordobesa / España).
Hizo su primera foto a los 16 años. Autodidacta y obsesionado con la luz, la ha intentado plasmar en toda su obra, ya sea retratos, paisajes o naturaleza. Antes trabajaba casi exclusivamente en blanco y negro buscando contrastes fuertes y ahora con el cambio a digital experimenta con el color en todas sus facetas, filtrando y virando, retocando y haciendo montajes.
Entre los premios recibidos destacan: 2005. Finalista en el XVI Concurso Nacional de Fotografía Ciudad de Córdoba “Premio Mezquita”. 2006. Premio de Honor en el XII Certamen de Fotografía “San Rafael”. 2007. Primer Premio Modalidad Color del VII Premio de Fotografía “Artes Plásticas” Universidad de Murcia.

TEXTOS ENINGLÉS
The legacy of apartheid left this inheritance behind , townships, the ghettos of the social marginalization of the non-white people that learnt to live, coexist and survive in the worst imaginable conditions.
Today little has changed, juvenile gangs dominate, and they traffic with alcohol, drugs and firearms. AIDS spreads faster and faster, hygiene, sanitation, even drinkable water is a luxury that very few have the option of opting for.
However, only a few kilometres from these areas life in the South African cities beats comfortably away, with its large houses, wide streets, modern shopping centers, leisure areas , hospitals, etc....
The townships are big stains where inequality reigns , they are simply there and the government does very little to change this unfortunate situation. The shacks grow at a frantic rate , the housing promised by the government not so.
Township Portraits Data of the Author
Born British in Zambia to a Spanish mother and a South African father in 1964 when it was still a British colony. In 1969 he moved to South Africa where he stayed until the age of 19.

He took his first pictures when he was 16, self-taught and obsessed with light he has tried to capture it in all his photos, be it portraits, landscapes or nature shots. In the past he worked exclusively in black and white searching for strong contrasts but now with the change to digital he experiments with colour in all its aspects, f i l ter ing, retouching and making photomontages.
