Brūma refers to the lack of visibility of those anonymous lives dashed by war. Stories and testimonies that chance has brought back from oblivion. The origin of the project is to be found in the documents of my personal collection, which are part of my PhD: El silenci de la boxa. La fotografia de boxa. De document sociològic a obra d’art.

1. The etymology of the term Brūma is found in the Latin language and refers to the “winter solstice”, according to the dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy (RAE). That is why previously the concept was used to refer to the winter season. In a figurative sense, the darkness or lack of clarity that clouding the mind or surrounding an event.
