Bio

I photograph from a young age whatever expresses me, impresses me, or what I feel the need to preserve in my memory. I approach photography as a form of storytelling, where each image equals a thousand words. Throughout my journey so far, I have gathered countless such “words”, forming a personal archive of experiences and observations. My practice is based on experimentation and adapting to the stimuli and needs of each moment. For this reason, I have not settled on a single photographic genre, I am more interested in the honest capture of a moment than in fitting into specific forms or categories. For me, photography remains an ongoing process of exploration, observation, and personal expression.
