A course by Espacio Crudo
Meet Natalia Londoño, Paola Sánchez and Andrés Caicedo, the creative trio behind Espacio Crudo, a multidisciplinary studio that fuses design and photography with a passion for gastronomy. In their innovative approach, they use food as a primary means of communication, exploring new ways of experiencing and narrating through food. This dynamic team brings together their talents in art direction, photography and food to create visual content that goes beyond the conventional.
From their base in Colombia, Natalia, Paola and Andrés have collaborated with a variety of brands, large and small, creating projects that transcend the ordinary. Their approach to food as a means of expression has allowed them to explore the cultural, social and political intersections that converge in each dish. This deep and multifaceted focus on food as communication has led them to be recognized both in the advertising industry and in renowned international publications.
With innovative personal projects, such as "Balanced Diet", where they transform food into unique visual creations, and collaborations with influential brands such as Cola and Pola Colombia, Espacio Crudo demonstrates how food can be a powerful vehicle for telling stories and challenging creative boundaries. Her approach not only highlights her artistic prowess, but also her deep understanding of how food becomes a powerful visual language that transcends borders and connects with audiences around the world.
