When did the woman decide to learn Photography? [originaltext]M: I’d like to kno

M: I’d like to know more information about your background.
W: I studied at the university in Barcelona and after graduating I worked for my father’s advertising agency for three years. In 1976, I decided to quit the job and devote myself to Photography.
M: You learned Photography on your own. Why didn’t you go to a school of Photography instead of studying Communication Sciences?
W: At that time there was no school of Photography in Spain. While I worked at my father’s agency, during vacations I would study how the agency’s professional photographers were taking photos.
M: Photographers seem to take pictures of things that exist around us, but your works are different in this way. Your works are neither documentary nor landscape photos, so you capture a completely different subject. What made you start photographing the kind of subjects that don’t exist?
W: I was thrilled at the fact that people tend to confuse the photograph with the reality, as if a photograph functions as a mirror of reality. For me it was clear that a photograph is just a constructed image, an image that is not natural nor spontaneous but made intellectually and technologically.
M: It means that a photograph doesn’t exist by itself, it contains an exterior factor, so the photograph is a mixture of arguments.
W: Yes, for me any photograph is an invention.
