Soniquete comes from the word \u201cson\u201d, whose meaning is tempo, rhythm. This word is used more frequently when referring to the tempo of the buler\u00edas and it is their backbone. As it sounds in the first song of Paco de Luc\u00eda\u2019s album \u201cZyryab\u201d, (if you don\u2019t have a soniquete, what are you doing?)<\/strong><\/p>\r\n

C\u00e1diz is experiencing a boom in the world of flamenco, a generation of artists is emerging from the city who are taking flamenco and the name of C\u00e1diz all over the world with their performances in the different theatres of the world cities they visit.<\/p>\r\n

Some of them are acquaintances from my city, schoolmates, sisters of my friends, etc. Thanks to their social networks, I see that they are taking C\u00e1diz all over the world, as I was telling you, but in the local press I did not see much information about it and that made me think, \u201cif I know everything they do on their social networks, the ones that don\u2019t follow them on their networks, they don\u2019t know what they do for their art and not even for their city\u201d.<\/p>\r\n

From that thought this work was born. The first thing I think about is the place, to expose it and that the people of the city see it to be able to find out who they are. The place I chose was the walls of the city\u2019s central market since the city council organises exhibitions there and that is where the people of the city go to buy every day. Then I thought about what kind of photos I wanted to take, I didn\u2019t want to take the typical photos that you can see of flamenco artists performing. I wanted something more intimate and that would show off C\u00e1diz and its art. That\u2019s why I chose to make these portraits of them as artists, but in their homes or places in the city. In this work, it is worth highlighting the discipline that I maintain in the execution of my portraits, not only in the black colour of the costumes of the subjects but also in the strong light of noon time, being able to represent the light of C\u00e1diz in the portraits of these Cadiz artists.<\/p>\r\n

One of the great challenges that I encountered with this job was that I had nothing planned until I got home on the day of the portrait. I had to start looking for the most appropriate place to do themt due to the light conditions and that it would fit what I was looking for.<\/p>\r\n

I usually use two 12-shot reels, one used indoors and the other for outdoors. Today I continue to photograph more flamenco artists to try to have an archive of all them in my city.<\/p>\r\n
