Miguel Ángel Sánchez

Born in Madrid in the 1970s, Miguel Angel Sanchez is a Spanish photographer living and working in Cairo. A graduate of the La Palma Art School in Madrid, he began his career as a journalist. After winning Madrid's Young Designer Award, he turned to photography, specializing in portraits. Seeking to capture moments in the lives of people he meets on his travels, he makes the street the main setting for his photographs. In 2010, he left Spain to move to Cairo, where he strengthened his commitment to photography. His work is exhibited beyond the Spanish and Egyptian borders, exporting to Paris, for example, at Galerie Inception in 2012.
