Originally from Colombia, Felipe Romero Beltrán has lived abroad for half of his life. Recently, he aimed to reconnect with his homeland while integrating research into the history of photography.
From his apartment in Paris, he talks about his project nominated for the Prix Elysée 2025, A Body That Speaks As a Bird, which revisits the 20th century, documenting the significant shift of lifestyles from the countryside to urban areas in Colombia, an episode that resonates with the photographer's own family history.
