There is a generation of young photographers that catches my attention because of their tendency to desaturate color photographs, but also because of the originality of their proposals. Blanca Munt's work is part of this group, with remarkable projects such as In Between, Rastres d'un camí, or the award-winning Alerta Mira-Sol, an interesting look at security, neighborhood relations and paranoia.

Blanca Munt graduated in Photography and Digital Media at the Escola Superior d'Imatge i Disseny (IDEP) in Barcelona in 2020. She believes that the best way to convey her ability to create and tell stories is through the fusion of photography, video and design.
She is interested in subjects such as housing, architecture, periphery, landscape, portraiture and society. She researches on the culture of fear and paranoia, which has led her to realize the project Alerta Mira-Sol (2020), published as a photobook by Dalpine publishing house, after winning the Fiebre Photobook Dummy Award (2020) and exhibited at KBr Llama at Fundación Mapfre (2021), Getxo Photo (2021) and at Sala Canal Isabel II during the Fiebre Photobook Fest (2021). Her project Sòl i Sostre (2021) was exhibited at the 7th photography festival Mirades in Baix Empordà.
She has worked as an assistant with the photographer Tanit Plana, participating in the Púber project of the latter, exhibited at La Virreina (2020). She has also worked as a curator with photographer Borja Ballbé for the digital platform Panorama, publishing artistic projects that address issues related to landscape and territory.
She currently runs La Juani, a creative direction and production studio where she works on commercial projects and some author proposals.
