Paloma Rincón (Mexico City, 1978) is a photographer based in Madrid who works internationally in a wide range of projects: from commercial campaigns for major brands to more experimental images and personal works.
His work focuses mainly on the world of still life. Create images in the limits where the photograph meets the sculpture, installation or design. It fuses different languages through a meticulous process where the elements are composed outside their habitual context redefining their meaning.
With a very graphic style, he works composition and color in a dynamic and optimistic way, combining a precise use of the technique and creativity of an artisan.

I simply love the work of Paloma Rincon and it is a pleasure to watch her through her creative process. Accident driven process of taking photographs is time consuming, also very playful and satisfying and in the end it comes with the outcome that surprise us. If you love Paloma's photographs and want to know more about her work "routine" you will probably like this course.

I was not fond of this course at all. It is absurd that one professional photographer struggles for hours to make one simple photo. It is a pain for the eyes. And the final images are literally beginner's level photos. Also, a teacher should keep the concepts clear and easily understandable and come prepared for teaching. I am very disappointed with this course.
