Ibarra Jaime : photographer

« I was originally built in Spain, but I grew up in Australia: it’s complicated, but it explains the funny accent.
I am a Professional Portrait/Art Photographer, but I am also known to do Editorial, Fashion, Commercial and Advertising work.
My work is widely published here on Earth, as well as…well, that’s the only planet I am aware of, so far. There’s still time yet, though.
I have Synaesthesia (“syn” – joined, “aethesia” – sense): a neurological condition, in which stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to automatic, involuntary experiences in a second sensory or cognitive pathway. Kind of like a wire is crossed between senses…one sense triggers another in a normally unrelated manner. For example, music might be “seen” in colours and patterns, or taste may be seen in shapes, letters and numbers may have textures, etc.
In my case, I hear colours, almost as-if they were musical notes. Combinations of colours are like combinations of notes, and become chords…and just as in music, some chords are dissonant, and tense…and some chords are complex and beautiful. In my work (more-or-less), I just choose colours that make the nicest music together. Although this is considered a “condition”, I like to think of it as a Super-Power :)
My ‘style’ is the visual amalgamation of over 15 years in Graphic Design, 25 years of composing & performing music, many years spent traveling around the planet, a lifetime of over-romanticizing things, insomnia, an unfaltering fascination with humans, a hyperactive imagination, and an obsessive need to create. » Jaime Ibarra.
