Antonio Escalante

Madre de Dios
Madre de Dios means Mother of God. This is the beginning of my first long-term project. It is a journey through the Madre de Dios region in south-east Peru, through its rivers, its people and its landscapes. It is also a journey that explores the impact of urbanisation in the daily life of native communities.

Antonio Escalante was born in Peru in 1979. Working there as a press photographer over 10 years, he engaged daily with different stories and people across the country, which helped him form a new social perspective on Peru. After 10 years press work, he is moving into longer-term documentary photography.
