In the photography work, entitled "LIVING IN SESTAO. The end of an industrial culture" I show the last stage in the process of change in the town of Sestao, the end of a period which shaped an all industrial town and its inhabitants.

I've showed such process from the experience of being one of the characters in the story I'm bringing here. My life has occurred in La Iberia Street, in the shade of the blast furnace and in the daily round of the workers. My look cannot deviate from the most important elements of the change: the hostile urbanism of a city designed to "store" workers; and the inhabitants themselves, adapted to this environment to mantain a very humane coexistence.
This work was showed in october of 2006.
