“The Waiting Game” gathers a series of photographs taken by Txema Salvans in the course of six years along the Mediterranean coastline of Spain.
It forms a striking tableau of necessity and desire, with concept and visual expression fitting perfectly together. The essence of the work is an exploration of the varied and often surprising gamut of human longings and behaviours.
Txema photographed the practice of prostitutionalong the roads and highways in its actual context: the intersections and roundabouts, the dead-end street of theindustrial estates, the shoulders of the road. Marginal places that provide the setting for an activity as over-exposed as prostitution.
