Hans Ortiz is a Mexican,
Photographer—Artist
based in London.

His work explores the boundaries between painting, installation, sculpture and photography, emphasising the material nature of the photographic medium. 

He specialises in photographic processes such as wet plate collodion, cyanotype, platinum palladium, photographic liquid emulsion, carbon print, photogravure, blended with contemporary, digital media. 

The recurrent themes in his work are time, history, religion and spirituality, classical painting and nature. 

His work often suggests that the photography medium hasn’t yet been fully discovered. He oscillates between past and present in order to create a unique language.
