Arfil Pajarillaga is a multimedia artist based in Cleveland. Over years of cultivating his practice in photography, working primarily with analog processes, his work gravitates towards documenting the relationships that coexist within environments. Whether between people, or a subject in nature and its surroundings, he actively works to document the beauty and magic that occurs within everyday life.

“How do you interpret the title, Photo Poet?” – Aja

“Someone who navigates the world around them and synthesizes their surroundings into a photograph—consistently striving to capture things in a way that looks the way it feels.” – Arfil
