In the Mapuche Language, “Kintun” means to see truly. A group indigenous to the south of Chile, the Mapuche are known for their connection with the land and environment.

Javier Guerrero Millalonco’s photography is inspired by his ancestors, and his experiences. Growing up in Punta Arenas he started taking photos of local wildlife. His passion ignited when he went to work at Torres Del Paine, a Chilean national park renowned for its incredible beauty.

Through his photography, Javi practices being patient and waiting for images to arrive naturally. His sensitivity and his love for nature allow him to see depth, and abstraction, without having to go very far.

Javier continues his artistic journey in Madison, Wisconsin where he currently lives with his beautiful wife and Miti miti.
