Biography
I do portraits
I think of pictures I cannot achieve just by pressing a button.
Pictures that reflect my way of seeing.
I believe in what I believe. I explore the limits of photography using it as raw material for work that resides between the pictorial and the photographic.
I avail myself of reason to give coherence to my work and of emotion to give it life...
but in each piece there is dialogue:
between intuition, chance and knowledge;
between the rational, the visceral and the emotional.
The work is nothing more that the physical result of the process.
I visualize the piece throughout its whole development, exploring until I achieve what I had imagined and sometimes, when it is finished, I look at it and think:
“there is something here that I didn’t do”.
Everything comes about for these moments of bonding;
for these instants of fusion with something that is not me,
and, at the same time, is the most me that exists.
