Laguna de la Magdalena presents ethereal laguna photography documenting Colombia's most important river's sacred source shrouded in atmospheric mist—meditation where geographical significance intensifies spiritual temporal layers Bruma explores. Winograd captures this páramo laguna as land of deities: source of Magdalena River carrying mythological weight in Colombian consciousness, fog making origin feel haunted by river's long history flowing toward Caribbean. The work superimposes geological time of mountain formation creating this high-altitude basin with immediate climate oscillation creating fog, while river's recurring cycles of flow connect present atmospheric moment to vast temporal span of water's journey. This photograph generates profound emotions about sacred geography, suggesting that mist reveals invisible presences where melancholic friars and indigenous deities converge at Colombia's vital waterway's mysterious ethereal source.

 

What began as a pretext to exercise Miguel Winograd's gaze, little by little became a meditation on different intertwined temporalities. The superposition of very ancient times with dynamic and fleeting cycles: from the geological time of formation of those mountains, through the recurring periods of flowering and decay of plant life, to the immediate oscillation of a climate that oscillates between extremes: all stations in a day, sometimes in an hour or less. And at the same time, traces of many pasts persist in a spectral present. Ghosts. Melancholic friars wandering in the fog. Land of deities and demons.
