The title is drawn from a line in a poem by José Lezama Lima: La luz es el primer animal visible de lo invisible, "light is the first visible animal of the invisible".
With no manipulation whatsoever -with just water, light, and a camera - Bufill captures real images in a fraction of a second and turns them into hypnotic apparitions.
