Vinculados con los diarios de su familia, el trabajo de Román Yñán implica reflexiones vivenciales a modo de lenguaje estético e idiosincrástico que el autor lleva años desarrollando. Con motivo de esta exposición, Yñán revisita sus archivos y presenta "Self-Series", una instalación de imágenes inéditas que colocan en su centro de atención al propio autor y las huellas de su cámara. Discretos pero marcados, los destellos del flash conforman una narrativa fenomenológica, rítmica e hipnotizadora, al final de la cual el ego, el universo del fotógrafo y su mirada directa acaban por diluirse en la trama de la imagen.

Drawing constant inspiration from his family life, the diaries of Román Yñán revolve around minor everyday experiences transmitted by means of eclectically and meticulously edited sequences with a marked aesthetic identity. For this exhibition, Yñán has revisited his archives. The result of this process is “Self-Series”, an installation of unpublished pictures, wherein he brings, for the first time, his own self and the traces of his camera into the focus of attention. Subtle but marked, the flash of Yñán’s camera gives place to a rhythmical and hypnotizing narrative with phenomenological nuances. Whereas straight photography prevails at the beginning, gradual captures of reality break up into multiple versions (positive/negative) and end up dissolving in the grain of the image.
