Born in Valparaiso, Chile in 1976, Ignacio Acosta lives and works in London. He has studied architecture and completed BA (Hons) in graphic design in Santiago, Chile and MA photography at the University of Brighton.
His photographic practice responds to the influence of place upon our sense of identity. Ignacio works with the abstraction of the contemporary metropolis as a stable model in an endless process of transformation, expansion and homogenization. His work addresses issues concerned with local versus global identities, images which examine both notions of aesthetics and form as well as commenting on political and social perspectives. His work has been exhibited and published internationally.
