GUILLERMO CERVERA – FLOW
2018-04-30Best known for his conflict photography throughout his 25-year career, Cervera’s time photographing the waves equally comprises his professional life. Between stints photographing in conflict zones, Cervera has always taken to the sea as a way of understanding and coping with the stress and trauma of photographing armed conflict. In 2008, Cervera witnessed the attack that killed his colleagues, Tim Hetherington and Chris Hondros, in Libya. The trauma of their deaths, having just followed his mother’s passing, further connected him to surfing. The quest for the perfect wave offers him healing and spiritual cleansing. Guillermo Cervera is a freelance photojournalist who has documented armed conflict and social issues for the international press for more than 25 years. Cervera’s photographs are regularly published in The New York Times, Newsweek, Marie Claire, The Guardian, Paris Match, Rolling Stone, ABC, El Pais, La Vanguardia, MSNBC and The Wall Street Journal and have been exhibited in galleries in Madrid and Barcelona, Spain.
