Behind the Lens

“Sonia Toledo’s photosyntheses are depictions of nature merged with animals. They express a romanticism at once deeply personal yet invitational to the viewer.

Technically fascinating, these layered images, juxtaposed on other images create a surreal feeling within a landscape. They are transformed by a selective imagination. Although some of these beautiful pictures can be disquieting, they are never threatening. They become a magical wonderland, an aquatic paradise.”
