Hi, I'm Nicolás Bernal from Ipiales Colombia

Indigenous Pasto and queer, he was born and is based in Ipiales, Nariño, Colombia. He is a photographer, artivist, and political scientist trained at the National University of Colombia in Bogotá. His work brings together artistic and documentary photography to explore colonial legacies, subaltern memory, Andean Indigenous cosmologies, the persistence of marginalized bodies under biopower, and sex–gender diversity across Abya Yala. His photographic practice is grounded in visual anthropology, shaping his commitment to long-term, co-authored processes.
