ABOUT
Pau de la Calle Argelès (Barcelona, 2000)
I'm a freelance photojournalist working on daily news and long-term projects. I'm interested in human stories, such as social conflicts, migration movements and the growing global climate crisis.
After finishing my photography degree in Barcelona, I specialized in photojournalism at the Autonomous University of Barcelona.
I worked for a year as a photojournalist and graphic editor at Diari ARA. Now, I work as a freelance for Diari ARA, El Nacional, The Associated Press, Europa Press, and EFE agencies.
I have published in international media such as TIME Magazine, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Times, The Guardian, CNN, Al Jazeera English, The Boston Globe, Der Spiegel, Libération, Le Monde, Neue Zürcher Zeitung, Irish Times, La Vanguardia, El Periódico, El País, Revista 5W, Diari ARA, La Razón, El Mundo, among others.
