The Endless Cycle of Business Trips

With his mysterious imagery, Spanish photographer Enrique Fraga, question the dehumanisation and isolation caused by constant travelling.

Through the use of mysterious and abstract imagery, Spanish photographer Enrique Fraga opens up questions regarding the dehumanization and sense of isolation that is caused by constant traveling.

Enrique Fraga, Vice President of an aerospace multinational company, belongs to that club and is one of those passengers who orbit the Earth, occasionally docking at nondescript spaces.

The photographs that give shape to this project, which is also a book published by Dalpine, recreate the atmosphere of shadows and flashes of colour that illuminate his journey. Through them, Fraga is able to reflect on his way of life and express that sense of detachment and that feeling of always being in the same place regardless of the distance, of living in an endless cycle that invariably ends at the starting point.
