Illa

In a short period of time, Salva López visited several islands with his partner: Japan, Taiwan, Bali, Komodo, Majorca and Menorca. And, for some reason, after their breakup, he decided to travel on his own to Lanzarote, another island, to shut himself away in his thoughts and photograph the volcanic landscapes as a kind of therapy. Upon his return, both home and to a broken relationship, Salva decided to capture this duality in book format: the colour photographs of his journeys with his girlfriend, mainly portraits of her, and the great black and white landscapes, barren and heart-breaking.
