The Mirages exhibition is an invitation to realms of unknown space where the open mind discovers a departure from physical reality and is led by his mind’s eye to a subjective and intangible world.

In creating my work, I enjoy capturing a single image, without story, without context, that leaves the viewer with the task of interpretation. In doing this, the camera becomes the gateway to personal dimensions beyond the realism of the photographic image and carries the minds of viewers outside time and space.

The natural vocation of man to investigate, to know the truth, yield and rise to the contemplation yet is carried away by intuition, relegating the search for what it is. My goal is to create, express and question through images. In each image, is there only one? How divergent is the image for each viewer? Does Murakami´s 1Q84 exist?

Why did I choose to take these pictures? Why exhibit them? Certainly I don`t know.

Perhaps they are memories that I have not yet experienced....

Perhaps it is the memory of past lives or the uncertainty of the future....

Perhaps they are images witnessed in other dimensions and I may find again in this one....

Perhaps there is a longing disquiet somehow in the spirit of the viewers, not here by chance, but because I have recreated an encounter with an old acquaintance from another lifetime or dimension.

The Earth’s Body exhibition is an invitation to transport ones view towards other worlds and unknown spaces where the reality that our senses perceive could be opened to a subjective and intangible experience.

The camera transforms into the entrance to another sensory perception that transcends the realism of the photographic image itself.

I capture an instant trying to create a story that excludes the present as it is perceived by our principal sense of sight and leaves room for infinite interpretations and unleashes the imagination.

Through a crack I get into the Earth’s body. I prepare my camera, I measure the light with the photometer and the shutter becomes the magic eye that gives access to other dimensions. I feel as if I am inside a human body. I start being transported by waves that flow in this space almost like science fiction, when I encounter deep, well marked strokes like wrinkles that show the passage of time. I walk between high and narrow walls, I get lost in labyrinths and the Earth reveals to me its multiple fascias. In a wide aperture I can feel a fleshy tongue. An immense hole swallows a furious sea of blood and fluids, its seems like a throat. The channels simulate veins, its tones violet, fucsia and red mark the route of an ancient bloodstream. I walk through a slim path as if I were inside an immense and never-ending birth canal. A white light is my only guide. I surrender, confident in it until being expelled back into the known world.

This is a selection of potraits that I have taken on different trips over the last couple of years.  Taking portraits is one of my passions. When I travel this allows me to approach, interact and connect more profoundly with people from diverse cultures and languages. In some cases I don’t know how or why, they accept to be photographed.  There isn’t any prejudice, we both open ourselves to the present, to that magical moment beyond words, gestures and languages, completely exposing their essence. In other cases they don’t accept immediately and most of them believe it’s not good for their souls. 

I would love to get to know more about my models by taking their photographs. For a brief moment, when I press the shutter,  I feel that the model and I inhabit each others world. It is in that precious second that the unique and raw beauty of the model becomes frozen in time, resulting in a captivating portrait.

When I take portraits most of the models pose with confidence and pride, others with some shyness, others with some kind of  anger and others with some sort of curiosity.  Some are at first stiff but when I take my eye off the lens and  our eyes meet with out anything interfering, something magical happens and they become more relaxed. They smile at me and it is in that moment that I shoot my camera wildly because I can feel that they have finally succumb and I can freeze some seconds of that indescribable connection.  

Many times I find  my body shaking. It is a strange and intense sensation that I can’t put into words. I also allow myself to become vulnerable, I feel fear, I feel joy, I feel euphoric. Those are some of the best moments in my profession when two energies connect and trust each other.  A dialogue starts there and then something from those sensations gets captured in the portrait’s image. I feel that in some way I know all the people that I have taken portraits of, I feel  very close to them.  

My work focus on female archetypes

The global female archetype always represents a duality between the concepts of life and creation, and death and destruction. In my photographs I represent some of these goddesses. I love to try to make the viewer feel their own story.

The Virgin Goddesses: figures that express the need for autonomy in women and the ability of women to focus their awareness on what It makes sense personally to them. 

Vulnerable goddesses: archetypes that are oriented towards relationships, their identities and well-being depend on having a meaningful relationship. They express the needs of women for affiliation and bonding. 

Alchemical or transforming goddesses: that motivate women to intensively pursue relationships more than permanence, to value the creative process and to be open to change.

My Photography Series emblematizes the artistic essence of life and explores the spontaneity and drama of our world. My intention is to convey the invisible within the visible and seize the essence of my emotional and physical experience to awake the viewers a profound sensitivity to humankind. Through my photography my goal is to reveal a timeless perspective and the excitement and visceral quality of our universe. 

I believe photography enables me to creatively express my way of experiencing the world and enjoy capturing images that evoke strong emotions, colors, and textures to life. It allows me to take a moment and create a mysterious and individual story - one that intentionally excludes reality leaving open an infinite number of possible interpretations.  I try when working to suspend judgment and to simply be open to the moment. It doesn’t always work, but sometimes it does. And when it does, I am able to open my heart to the people I encounter and allow myself to just be there with and for them. When working on the street I am drawn to the ordinary moments, to the little slices of the lives of the people I encounter there. ‘There are no ordinary moments’,there are only moments that rush by, that go unnoticed and unrecorded. My role is to record at least some of these moments. Trying to show the beauty, the humanity, of all the so-called ‘ordinary people’ I encounter. My intention is revealing both the variety of culture and similarity in character. The seemingly chaotic streets of a single planet at the turn of a millennium where predominantly urban people can be studied and photographed in the wild going about the task of living out the commerce and leisure and bustle and sometimes grind of their everyday public lives.

I especially enjoy it during my travels. I fall in love with some locations for its beautiful scenery and fascinating architecture, others for the genuineness and beauty of its people, and some for both. This form of photography allows me to meet and interact with people from a variety of cultures and languages. I believe that through photography I can connect with anyone in a much deeper way, obviating the need for any language. When traveling, anything that crosses my path at any given moment becomes both my and my camera’s focus and forces me to live fully in the present moment, surrendering to all that is going on around me. Through these experiences I have gained great respect for the people from all cultures that I have had the privilege to experience and have been inspired by and have learned much from them.

In my latest work “Gusts”, I explore capture images with a certain sequence of motion, as if in a thousandth of a second the images getslife and action. Attaining not so real images , trying to resemble a painting, following somehow my style in the unknown worlds, fiction, where there is no time, no space, and adding movement. In some images I create circles by making the motion blur technique, the images assembled such as tunnels, or twisters, leaving a feeling that the image can be erased, blow and disappear.

That's what gives life to these images. Leading me to realize that nothing is forever. Nothing is static.  The world is action, motion, movement and therefore is life. Constant change.
