Ana Casas Broda, 1965, Spain, has been living in Mexico since she was eight
years old. Her long-term projects are intense and personal. Her latest body of
work is Kinderwunsch, a complex and personal set of images dealing with
maternity. She spent five years submitting herself to fertility treatments
before she got her first son. When she entered the same process a second time
she decided to capture the entire process, the treatments, the pregnancy, birth,
bodily contact, affection, feeding and other aspects of the experience. As the
project progressed, it has become more complex. With her sons she carries out
actions that derive from the childrens minds or from her fantasies. In 2000 she
released the book Album, a photographic project that is built on the
relationship between her grandmother and herself. It includes images from her
childhood to photographs of the last years of her grandmother.
