…one or more "Unconnected clicks" ….

 

….that capture an event, a scene, «immobilizing» time in the space where it takes place.

This inadvertently creates a new reality or better a consciousness that you feel the need to share with others.

 

Yes, the photo is not objective!

It is a constant reminder that the world is not what we see….

 

Its power for me lies in symmetry, purity and austerity. In the creation while watching the emotions of narratives, reflecting the world that is hidden inside us.

 

I do not photograph with goals and intentions.

I am not identified as a certain type of photographer and I do not believe in photographic discriminations… in categorizations. The power of a photograph is to “embody-render” all the “categories”.

 

If an atmosphere creates a spark through its frame or part of it,

perhaps then urge the viewer to make up their own narratives.

To travel him… .as he would not expect!

 

In a frame I am attracted by the austerity and the removal of the "unnecessary", so that the empty space directs my gaze to the "main subject".

The photograph in which the human presence is implied, fascinates me!

 

“You don't make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved.” …. Ansel Adams
