This series shows how the photographic camera rendered motion and how the body's actions and movements reveal the world. The transitions of changes created by a body's actions and a fabric resulted in a depiction of new flows of meaning that act as becomings. Taking advantage of this transformative process and the mind's capacity to perceive familiar patterns where none exists movement is acting here as an event in the making.

One's self

This series as the result of the synchronization of emotions with the Other. It was an exercise of empathy in an attempt to ease the burden of life. These images are not about death neither violence, they are about what it means to be human and the possibility to reach its best.

This work is about the finitude of our flesh. A concept that we usually deny when we’re young or in good health. But the decay of our body starts at our birth, and it is still happening now independently from our will. Recognizing the inescapable end of our body can result in overwhelming feelings. The fact that our body is the object of our short existence is a fear that denies everything and grows inside. It is the realization of our mortality. All lives are hidden deaths.

Modify the perceived view. Barge into the image to alter it and thus change the contemplation posture that came so tight when we are in front of a landscape. By establishing an active stance against what you see, you can set a relationship of space between the photographed place and the space one occupy or may occupy in it.

What lies between human reason and human violence? Why is “the animal kingdom” the antonym of “humankind”? Are we not animals too? Does it have any sense to be still inherently incompatible with other living beings? “We, the animals” talks about creatures called humans, our unique intellect and darkness; it also speaks about our hands and how these hands and their fingers make us unique and dangerous as hell. Our hands can do almost anything we can imagine; they are the tools we use to create our position in the world, and by the same token, we use them to destroy it.

The dire consequences of intelligence as domination
