BIOGRAPHY
I was born in Mexico City, I studied Architecture at the Autonomous University of Mexico, a career that I interrupted since my vocation is the visual arts. I decided to enroll in the National School of Painting, Sculpture and Engraving "La Esmeralda" of INBA. During my stay at ENPEG, I worked on a project with the SEP (Secretary of Education) and the National Center for the Arts in the delivery of plastic arts workshops for technical secondary school teachers. I have taught plastic arts workshops and courses for children and conferences with various audiences on the dissemination of the arts. I am co-author of the book "Visual Arts" from the New Mexico publishing house. 2017 Semifinalist of the photographic magazine "CuartoDarko" of Mexico in its national contest with the theme: "El Tiempo" with photography titled: Memento Mori. 2020 Lomography Magazine interviewed me for my photographic series: The Story of J. Series that records a series of events that range from the surreal to the fantastic in a room that challenges the idea of reality and loneliness. https://www.lomography.com/magazine/344442-musings-from-self-isolation-paul-estevez?fbclid=IwAR21JSeiKVKXbpAeW3bIk5g76vnNlhe-2FO9uWEhKEwYHk3VbcDtxnOiMpk.

It should be noted that all my work is done with silver materials and equipment, also known as "Analog". Some of the cameras I use are from between the 1930s and 1980s. With 135mm and 120mm format film. Since I feel a great passion for preserving forgotten processes and techniques that are almost abandoned.
