Fer Zannol

Fer Zannol

Fer Zannol was naturally introduced to photography through a passion for art that runs in the family. She actively explores everyday life as an artistic terrain full of secrets. The everyday world appears as a manifestation of what is hidden, invisible to the hasty existence of everyday life. 

Through a critical and attentive lens, Fer opens up an almost infinite set of ways of perceiving reality. She utilizes her own visual lexicon to reveal secrets, beliefs and taboos. Through a subtle use of the chiaroscuro technique, she allows us to access the mystery of the intimate and hermetically preserved: the "unsaid", "the unnameable". 

The viewer is immersed in a world where the limits of what is real versus imaginary are blurred in a disturbing way. It is an invitation to a path of introspection and comprehension of the banal or simply ordinary. A reserved knowledge is enabled, exclusive of those beings in search of the truth. 

The untold is presented as silence that protects, a mystery that is deconstructed through visual imagery. Family secrets, presence in absences and nostalgia for a world that vanishes in the past time but is updated in the present identity of our daily life.

Aurora (Dawn) (Traces - 04/2021)


Hidden shelter of silence. Shelter from my fears and anguish.

You were tough and protective, able to withstand even the most intense pain, keeping you stoic to the sharp marks that were etched on your skin.

Thank you, but it is time to connect, face and start again without forgetting.

Goodbye, dear friend!

… In front of you I find myself, it is hard to let you go; it took years for me to mold you and so quickly was your end.

Little by little, I was breaking you apart, although in reality part of me left.

Oh, glorious growth of a being, congratulations make you appear, granting me the greatest gift I could ask for, the sunset of my dawn.

Here I am again beginning to arm myself, to return to Being...

A deafening moment of drowning.

Then ... the Silence...

I´m out today.

The sun in the soul, the cold and the heat, the fresh air runs through my whole being, all on the surface.

A new world, a window, through which to go out and connect in the fabric of brotherhood.

... You took me by surprise, I looked into the abyss, and I discovered how beautiful it is...
