The exhibition "We are from the inside, We are Panama!" by photographer Janin Gastón and Folklorologist Idalides Córdoba will be present under the eagle corridor at the Albrook Mall Shopping Center until March 2 so that the visiting public can connect through the 15 photographs with Panamanian customs and roots.

This photo sample in style "Fine art is but a technique that seeks perfection in images through the handling and contrast of the color pallet or the digital retouch, production an atmosphere that enhances the colors and makes them look like paintings," thus describing Janin Gastón.

He added that this series "celebrates the cultural wealth and ancestral heritage found in every corner of the Panamanian provinces, an appreciation of daily scenes with which we can strengthen our link with the history and identity of our beautiful country."

The photo show tells a story that goes from "Welcome to Granny Ida," followed by scenes such as "The Idalides," "The House's Cows," "The Girl of the Platanal," "The Fairy of the River," and "San Antonio bring me a boyfriend," among other things that invite the spectator to come up with a story and tipple the customs and traditions of the field. "

Some of the scenes that have been captured are recreations of family traditions by the Folklorologists Idalides Córdoba from Las Tablas, who worked with the photographer this project.

The author of this exhibition says that "Welcome from Granny Ida" is his special work as part of this exhibition, because the model is an interioran grandmother, attested with a beautiful pollera at the portal of the house and with a beautiful smile to the visitors.

It should be noted that one of the models and who also supported the logistics for this exhibition to be a reality is the Idalides Cordoba folklorológa, to whom Gaston describes as a person living the Panamanian folklore, indicates it even in his voice, his energy and this "singing" that sweetens his ear, as well as passing a unique passion for his people's roots, from there we did a good chemistry and this exhibition was born.
