About
I’m Martin Sotelano
I am a former photographer and now a multimedia artist (or at least I am trying).
From Argentina now living in Wales, UK.
Background
My work has been published and guest-edited in several publications. Exhibiting and curating internationally, my work has been shown in Argentina, Uruguay, Mexico, Spain and the UK.
Presenter and lecturer for over 20 years on several Universities and Colleges such as Palermo University, Raggio College, Universidad Nacional de Cordoba, among others. Founder of Camera Clubs in Buenos Aires and Cordoba (Argentina). Curator at “The Post Office Art Centre” in Blaenavon, Wales. Published author.
My work is eclectic, and my interests go from some travel locations to glamour.
I use my spare time shooting arrows and learning to play the trombone.
