Exploring Costa Rica Through the Lens of Leonardo Ureña
Born in 1984 and based between Nosara and San José, Costa Rica, Ureña brings a distinctive vision to the world of photography. With a background in graphic design, Ureña blends artistic principles with photographic techniques, creating evocative images that transcend the typical selfie culture. His reflective approach prioritizes capturing spaces and emotions, offering a mindful experience that emphasizes atmosphere and mood.
The “Nature” Series
Ureña’s "Nature" series explores Costa Rica's spectacular landscapes, from tranquil beaches to pulsating oceans and diverse plant life. By focusing on abstract details and subtle textures, he renders familiar scenes in a new light, presenting a fresh perspective that goes beyond traditional color and texture representations.
The “Urban” Series
In contrast, his "Urban" series shifts to the dynamic environment of San José, Costa Rica's bustling capital. This series features a compelling portrayal of the city’s rapid and often chaotic growth, depicting rooftops that reveal the underlying chaos of urban life. Ureña’s work in this series reflects the complexities of city living, blending observations of the cityscape with a graphic design sensibility.
The “Squares within Squares” Series
Expanding his exploration beyond Costa Rica, Ureña's “Squares within Squares” series offers a unique collage approach to urban photography. By overlaying images of New York, Mexico City, and San José, Ureña contrasts different urban environments, exploring the interaction between diverse contexts and the possibilities within photography.
