Anthology on Spanish far-right

"Anthology on Spanish far-right" is a visual document on far-right and right-wing mindsets in Spain throught the lens of historical memory, myths, banal nationalism, traditional values, media, etc.

I have travelled around Spain to document how these far-right and right-wing ideas manifest themselves in different ways: the cult towards the old empire; Ultra-Catholics; nostalgics for the Franco regime; historical revisionism; military boot camps that roots minors discipline and nationalism; disinformation actors and their consumers; the new far-right and their schools of thought.

These manifestations are not mutually exclusive, they can be connected, during my work I have seen people present in Francoist events in Madrid attending VOX meetings in Barcelona, a flag of the Spanish Tercios can be seen in far-right protest in Madrid and in historical reenactments in Seville while teaching nationalistic myths on the Spanish Empire, these teachings can be also instructed to minors attending a boot camp in Valencia, etc.

The work aims to document a Spain that I feel completely alien, a Spain based on nationalism, nativism and exclusive ideas, a Spain that can manifest everywhere and of which anyone can be susceptible, from middle age man with nostalgia from the Franco regime, to 15 year old interested in symbols or worried on the alleged increase in crime.
