Artist statement

A photograph is only the first layer.

Ren Navarro is a Mexico City–based photographer and mixed-media artist working with architecture, landscape, and the unstable line between memory and documentation.

Silver-toned images are cut, folded, veiled, and rebuilt with paper and graphite. The finished works feel precise from a distance and quietly physical up close.

“I use the camera to collect facts, then the studio to make them uncertain again.”

Selected work

Clear evidence,
beautifully interrupted.
