The only thing that I have always done well is what flowed from my naturally, and that somehow I have lived.
WALSER, Robert, The Walk
With these words of Robert Walser I try to reflect the background of my work, which talks about everyday events with a personal, intimate and poetic tone.
I talk about memories, experiences and identity, using a rhetorical language, appealing delicate senses and feelings and trying to get the subjective and personal essence of everything around me.
I care about the substance and form, what I explain and how I explain it, what I represent and what I represent it like. I work with nature, geometry, architecture, photography; all of them as a support and and language at the same time.
