'Escrito con luz', an exhibition in which poetry and photography converse
The photographer José Antonio Marcos and the poet Javier Pérez Walias have created a book in which the images are juxtaposed with poetic texts that use impressionism to delve into the innermost reaches of Extremadura. The Regional Publisher from Extremadura has edited a part of the collaboration in exhibition format. The itinerant exhibition will visit different places in the region. Now it's opening the Book Fair in Trujillo.

This time José Antonio Marcos has directed his camera lens at the world of detail that lies in the beautiful places in Extremadura, from the Sierra de Gata, passing through the Jerte Valley until getting to the meridional or southerly areas of the region. But it is not easy to guess the specific place.
Marcos fragments the landscapes to reveal their more intimate nature, a flower, an animal, the furrows of a ravine or the misty and unsettling image of a forest at dawn. And to harness the evocative message even more, the pen of the Plasencian poet Javier Pérez Walias, that shapes through elements such as light, water, and air as a sustained poetic discourse using impressionism and intuition.
