Consuelo Bautista lives in Barcelona city and works as an independent photographer.

During the last 34 years, I have undertaken personal projects in Cuba, Colombia, Israel, Montenegro, Galicia, Barcelona, Morocco, Senegal, Mexico, the United States and Canada, all linked to documentary photography with an author's vision.

They have been exhibited and published, nationally and internationally, in various media, magazines, catalogues, galleries, museums, archives, cultural and educational centres. The most significant of these include ‘Cuba, Cuba y Cuba 1993’; ‘90’s’; ‘A Los Invisibles 2007’; ‘RAVAL 2004-2013’, ‘MUERTITOS 2012’ and ‘NOWHERE NOWHERE 2016’.

Each project takes years of planning, development and support that seeks coherent, useful dissemination, in each case.

In 2007, I won the City of Barcelona Award in the category of visual arts, for the project ‘A los invisibles’ [To the Invisible Ones].

I collaborate with various media and habitually with the newspaper El País, Barcelona. I am a teacher at the Autonomous University of Barcelona.

I am a founder member of the BARCELONA CENTRE FOR DOCUMENTARY PHOTOGRAPHY lafotobcn.
