The project was conceived as a way of promoting small organisations and individuals who are not satisfied with the present state of society and are finding ways to fight for what they think is fair. The series portrays activists and volunteers of all ages, professions and backgrounds. Luis explains that ‘the bottom line is that we all have the ability to change the world around us. We can all do our bit to change society.’
Luis left Spain in 2000 and moved to London in 2009. He has always been interested in different forms of social action but found that since moving abroad, he could no longer find the time to collaborate regularly with social groups. He therefore decided to use his photography skills to promote such organisations and their members and highlight what they do to achieve social change. Luis has previously exhibited at Oxford House and the Shadwell Centre. He is also exhibiting his collaborative project with Adrián Cuesta, Cambio de Planes.
