Chagras

Through Fabini’s vision, the Chagra—traditional Ecuadorian cowboy—becomes more than a subject of study; he is transformed into a testament to a way of life sculpted by the unyielding forces of nature. His work transcends the documentary form, drawing us into a visceral connection with the landscape and its people. Through his images, we are drawn into the world of the chagra, living the rawness of their existence. This is the essence of Fabini's art, his ability to capture not just the untamed beauty of the Andes, but the intimacy between the Chagra and the land they inhabit.
