__________________________________
My work is the product of all of my life experiences. I started traveling when I was 15 years old. Since then, my skateboard and my camera have taken me to 20+ countries around the world. A documentarian by nature, my films and photographs have given me permission and a reason to put myself in some beautiful, intense and sometimes crazy situations. I am there, present in the moment in order to capture the image that tells the most profound story.
The camera allows me to fully open my eyes, while I continue to develop the way I see and feel the world around me. I am interested in showing the wide range of human emotions we all experience on a daily basis and the conditions we live in. I want to highlight the joy and underline the suffering that goes on around us at all times.
My desire to comunícate what I see pushes me to go out and work every day, searching for the extraordinary situations that occur in this complex world. I walk or I wait, always ready with my camera, my reflexes waiting for the moment to react. It’s not just all colors and shapes. I want to go deeper. I dive in, ask questions and make friends while pushing myself visually and culturally into new worlds. My explorations have taught me a lot, not only about my subjects, but also about myself as a person..
I capture complex scenes, often involving more than one subject, layered across multiple visual planes. I am interested in the interactions and intersections that happen between humans as we experience this world. My work is focused on the truth, not creating illusions or showing a mythical world based on fantasy. I believe there is great beauty in the reality of the world.
