WRITING — Agnish Ray

As a journalist based in Madrid, I write about travel, culture, gastronomy and current affairs. I have written about destinations across Spain, from Madrid, San Sebastian and Oviedo to Seville, Valencia and the Balearic Islands, and have interviewed a range of Spanish artists, filmmakers, sportspeople, dancers, designers, authors and chefs.

My work has been published by: newspapers such as The Guardian, The Telegraph, The Times, Financial Times, New Statesman and The National; travel and lifestyle magazines such as Conde Nast Traveller, Sleeper, Supper, Vogue, Esquire, Kinfolk and i-D; art, design and culture magazines such as Wallpaper*, AnOther, The Spaces and Elephant; brands such as Fundación Loewe, Art Basel, El Corte Inglés and Madrid Tourism.
