Ren Rox was born and grew up in northwest Spain, before moving to London. She eventually bought a film SLR camera to document her life with beautiful pictures, and somehow typical snapshots were not enough.
Rox's main inspiration is music. "Every song can conjure up a million pictures, just like every picture can conjure a million songs. After all, everything is connected," she says, and it's perhaps for this reason that she started seeing some of her music work published in several key UK publications such as the late The Face magazine.
Rox is currently concentrating on editorial work and some ongoing personal projects, but she mainly enjoys photographing friends and coming up with ideas that one day, budget permitting, she hopes can materialize. "I also really love self-portraits but there's something ironic and tragic about them. I just wish I could leave my own body behind and be able to look through the viewfinder," she explains.
