Alejandro Almanza Pereda
A glass of fruit
Did you notice those bubbles? They are only visible a couple of times in the video. It is a clue about where this video was made. This video was shot underwater. How cool is that?
The artist, Alejandro, started experimenting with taking photos underwater in 2007. After many failed attempts and tons of broken equipment Alejandro gave up on the idea. Years later he told a friend about the project. The friend became so enthusiastic about it that he encouraged Alejandro to try again. Alejandro took some time to think about it and he found a method that works. He started with photographs and later moved on to making videos too.
Alejandro is a Mexican artist who works with video and photography.
