Isis Ascobereta earned a Ph.D. in comparative literature before embarking on a career in photography. She developed her skills as a self-taught artist, with her literary background providing a deep understanding of narrative structures. Her visual language explores poetic abstraction, nourished by a contemplative engagement with everyday life—particularly nature and objects.
Working primarily outdoors, she creates distinctive compositions in which the environment directly shapes her perception of forms, textures, and details. Through her photographic practice, she seeks to construct an autonomous visual universe, where each image contributes to a coherent and sensitive narrative. Her interest in alternative processes has led her to explore cyanotype and infrared photography, which she integrates into selected projects.
Isis Ascobereta is of Mexican and Spanish origin. She lives and works in Paris. She is a member of ADAGP and UPP.
