(ESPAÑOL – ENGLISH) by Iara Vega-Linhares Cuando nos mudamos del centro de la ciudad a nuestro barrio, hace varios años, me maravillé por tener un bosque justo al lado de casa. Lo conocía tímidamente. Mis hijas intimaron rápidamente con el bosque, pues empezaron a cruzarlo diariamente camino a la escuela junto a otros niñas y niños. De hecho es recomendación de la instrucción pública en Suiza enviarlos solos para estimular su independencia y sentido de orientación, sin contar la intensaRead more

I WORK WITH YOU
by Iara Vega Linhares (English, Français, Español) Last week I decided to build a photo series with some of the people I work or collaborate with, as a graphic designer, communication consultant, and artist-photographer. Some of them are still home working, some could already return to the field or their offices. Little by little, like everything during this deconfinment period. In normal times I use to work online with some of them. With others I collaborate more closely and weRead more
Les voisins confinés
by Iara Vega Linhares ( français / english / español ) Dans ce temps de STAY AT HOME, j’ai invité mes voisins, qui sont aussi des amis, à poser pour ma caméra depuis leurs maisons. Aujourd’hui, notre relation de voisinage qui a toujours été active, prend des proportions plus importantes. Confinés dans nos maisons, et distants que nous sommes de nos familles, de nos parents, des grands-parents, amis, collègues de travail et camarades de classe. On se sert les coudes.Read more
Temps Suspendu
Un immeuble fermé pendant cinq ans qui rouvre ses portes et qui nous inspire à dévoiler ses mystères autour de 133 ans d’histoire. 1886. Un restaurant familial sans consommation d’alcool éloigné du coeur de la ville de Biel/Bienne. Un lieu de fêtes, de bals et de promenades dans la forêt. Une piste de glace et un stade de patins à roulettes qui accueillent des matchs importants. La Première Guerre mondiale, puis la deuxième. Trente-six ans ans passent et le restaurantRead more
La jóven de la casa amarilla
©Iara Vega Linhares, all rights reserved. En mi Libro y exposiciones de Lienslazos quedaron fuera varias imágenes, y cómo no? Fueron casi dos años de proyecto, cuatro viajes entre Suiza y Nicaragua, entre Biel/Bienne y San Marcos. Documentando y acumulando un banco de imágenes de centenas de fotos. Para el libro seleccioné 56 imágenes (distribuídas por pares) , la exposición íntegral es de 36 imágenes de 120 x 80 cm (18 pares). Hoy, 5 años después del lanzamiento del libro, empecé aRead more
Beats of Tirana: the heart of Albania
(ENGLISH) If Tirana is well-known by its colours, the city that took a different and creative glance under the former Major Edi Rama (painter and artist), actual Prime Minister of Albania, also breathes a strong nostalgia atmosphere coming from communist Enver Hodxa’s times. Being the Capital of Albania (Shqipëri), but also a big reference for most of Albanians in the Balkans, is alive and dynamic by its youth. I was there with my family during a short 10 days trip backRead more
The Budapest journey
It’s colder but it’s warmer. This is a series of 10 images. One day journey in lovely Budapest, saying good bye to 2014, and wishing “boldog új évet” to 2015. Special thanks to my dear friend Magali, who at that moment didn’t expect to end up as a protagonist in a photo-Blog! ——— Es mas frío, pero es cálido. Esta es una serie de 10 imágenes. Una jornada en la adorable Budapest, despidiendo el 2014 y deseando “boldog új évet” para 2015. Un especial agradecimiento a miRead more
Último Mosaico de la Gran Sultana
Granada, Nicaragua – Octubre/October 2014, images by Iara Vega-Linhares.

before the rain in Granada
The light is so strong and white in the middle of a sunny day in this Pacific part of Nicaragua, that you can be quite thankful when the sky turns dark and you can already smell the humidity of the earth. The vibrant colours around become intense and divine. Granada (estimated population of 123,697 and historically one of Nicaragua’s most important cities) is not just happy because of the her graceful houses and buildings, people, dogs, bicycles, horses and vehicles in the streets. It’s aRead more
And there he was … fishing the light
He use to be there every Thursday. And when is not him, it’s another one. There is always at this time of the morning a light fisher. He does not see me. I see him. And we both see the light. Iara.Read more
