Bogotá, Colombia.1992) is a documentary photographer. – The River Magdalena, named after Mary Magdalene, is the most important river in Colombia. Its source is the Andes Mountains, at an altitude of 3,650 metres, from where it crosses the country covering 1,600 kilometres before flowing into the Caribbean Sea. […] Since the beginning of the armed conflict in the sixties, the river has also been spewing out the bodies of murdered people.
