White is the combination of all the colors of the spectrum. In a way, white also captures the different colors of emotion: the nostalgia of the ceramic dishes at your house en el pueblo, the coldness of the snow, the peace under fresh cotton, the anxiety of hospital walls, the sorrow or hope in a candle.

Since 1973, Cristina García Rodero has devoted her life to her creative drive. Originally from la España vaciada—born in Puertollano, Castilla La Mancha—Cristina made history as the first Spanish photographer to be a part of Magnum, and, along the camino, she created her own personal geography of tiny, often previously unknown villages across Spain that celebrate unique festivals and rituals. Her photography captures the moments when we step away from our everyday rhythm to honor local traditions and connect with others, merging the spiritual with the carnal in the fiesta.
