Isabel Muñoz brings time to a stop in order to concentrate on the details, and infuses volatile moments (of dance, sculpture, bodies, the curve of buttocks, the design drawn by fingers or palms of the hand, a scar, a tattoo) with the quality of a monument. Her way of feeling and communicating, of transferring the emotion of these timeless situations or places, is to capture it with her framing, and reveal it through her textured paper.

Muñoz' way of looking does not possess the object of her focus, we do not look into their eyes; distance and detail infuse everything with beauty. The pictures, taken in places from Burkina Fasso to Irán, and Cuba to Buenos Aires, play upon confusing the distinction between male and female body, highlighting the most characteristic gestures of every place.

Isabel Muñoz has been a photographer for more than 20 years and she is one of the biggest names in contemporary Spanish photography.

Isabel received the "Medalla de Oro al Mérito en las Bellas Artes", the Fine Arts Gold Medal Award given by the Spanish Ministry of Culture.
