Statement
In my work, I use light, the camera and the technical tools of photography to create abstractions of the visible world, redirecting the photographic act towards an increasingly pictorial territory. I use high key, long exposures, movements, grain and blur, looking for lines, spots and shadows with which I try to create a common thread between the outside and the deep subjectivities. I work from the hint, because I assume that, beyond the line that domesticates the painting, life reveals itself to be amorphous, elusive, pure immanence. It does not allow itself to be captured. That is why I create sketches of the visible or of other possible worlds, in order to participate in that uncertain story that we all invent every day.
