Gallaecia

Book that showcases the journey that photographer Manu Rocha undertook in the winter of 2017 throughout the Galician community.

 

Galicia has its etymological origin in Gallaecia, the name the Romans baptized the area located in the northwestern tip of the Iberian Peninsula, which was inhabited by Galaicos in the western zone and by Astures in the east.

 

This book displays the journey that photographer Manu Rocha made during the winter of 2017 throughout the Galician community, visiting emblematic places such as the famous Beach of the Cathedrals. In this work, the spotlight is on the photographs, which are combined with the white of the page and small texts written in Galician by authors like Francisco García Lorca or Celso Emilio Ferreiro, creating rhythms that guide the reader.
