Tesseract Daydreams by Daniel Agra on view at India Photo Fest

Spanish artist Daniel Agra shows four photographs from Tesseract Daydreams (Ensueños de Teseracto), a series that begins with an uncomfortable question: how much of what we look at is really ours? They are on view at the India Photo Fest in Kolkata, 25 to 27 December 2026, his second consecutive year at the festival.

COG India Art Foundation organises the festival, which began in 2022 and brings together visual storytellers from India and other countries. Each day runs from 3 pm to 8 pm in the galleries of the Indian Council for Cultural Relations (ICCR Kolkata). At the 2025 edition, Daniel Agra presented neowabi.

Between that edition and this one, Art News India Magazine, an Indian art publication, devoted an article to Daniel Agra’s fifteen years in expanded and experimental photography. It appeared on 18 October under the title “Daniel Agra marks 15 years of photography as visual thought”.

COG India Art publishes an artist profile of Daniel Agra, from A Coruña, on the festival website. His photography combines abstraction and visual poetry and works with expanded landscape and territorial memory. It draws on fragments of the physical world to build open images. His work is present in institutional and private collections in several countries.

Tesseract Daydreams is one of the most conceptual series in Daniel Agra’s abstract and expanded photography. Its title joins two ideas: the box, the television that for decades kept building the collective imaginary, and the tesseract, a four-dimensional hypercube that no three-dimensional eye can take in at a single glance. The question behind it is how much of what we see belongs to us and how much is an echo of images and codes we learned to inhabit without noticing.

Daniel Agra makes these images with optical devices of his own development, without digital
manipulation, and leaves them in the strip between the recognisable and the indeterminate. They
question how we learned to look and ask the viewer for an active gaze. The series raises a suspicion: that the dream we live in may not be ours.
