stories from the Feria and it’s feriantes
During my visits back to my hometown since I have moved to London, I have had the chance to rediscovered and reconnect with the beauty of this well known Andalusian tradition “La Feria”.
It was the stunning horses and riders with their traditional costumes that took my breath away.
Visiting la Feria during the daytime, it is an experience that I barely lived in my youth, as I used to go at night. Day and night events have completely different atmosphere and vibe, during the night barely no one dresses up traditionally, and there are not horses on sight.
For the last few years I wanted to portray and capture the people that makes this tradition alive and how they prepare themselves during a whole year for this seven days.
