I have been a photographer for more years than I care to remember. The photographic fever has devoured everything and for the last fifteen years, I have dedicated myself with all my fervor and dedication to photography. Self-taught, playing with my first camera at the age of fourteen, I have ended up looking for the justification of my travels through the excuse of organizing photographic trips, which is what I am officially dedicated to. I needed the excuse of being at work to mask my passion.
There is of course a personal and direct involvement in the places that I later represent but (and), my artistic practice includes onsite photography and documentation, historical records research, as my own encounters as well as testimonials from other visitors and narratives. De-constructing whatever is called reality in order to build another new reality that is more closely related to my non-photographic memories.
