Ser Sangre is a photographic project by Iñaki Domingo (b. 1978 in Madrid), created in collaboration with the members of his entire family. The photographer took advantage of a vacation time to propose a joint project to the members of his family. The idea was for all of them to participate in the decision-making process, from the conception of the photographic project to its final form as an exhibition and book.
On a second level, Ser Sangre seeks to question and explore how the family is traditionally represented in family photo albums, reflecting on the reasons why the images contained in these containers of intimate visual memory always tend to look the same. Collections of frozen smiles predominate, to the detriment of other moments, much more frequent in any family’s day-to-day activities.
