FINE ART PHOTOGRAPHY
If life works as photography by capturing and contemplating reality, then memory –and thus artistic creation– is the processing of said reality, where subjectivity takes precedence over objectivity.
My photographic work is an extension of my own memory: where I’ve been, walked and breathed in. Like art, it is not reality per se, but a reframing of my own mind and soul across physically perceived places and beings.
These are some of my memories.
