“The relationship between what we see and what we know is never clear. Every evening we see the sun setting. We know that the Earth is moving away from it. However, knowledge, explanation, never quite fit with vision.”

The Traffic of This City
I spent the winter in Mexico City, and from there I drew inspiration for a series of images based on the traffic of this city. I’m very interested in the contrast between speed, solid concrete, and natural forms—how these three layers coexist.

Rings of Saturn
It’s easier to adhere to rules and judge based on imposed, defined, and clear canons, but it’s also suffocating—at least for me and for my eye, which doesn’t naturally see through those parameters.

History Matters
This project was more of a reminder: that history matters. And while every generation and culture has its issues, using technology that forces you to slow down really does work wonders for the mind and heart.

Nostalgic Modulor
My recent work has been somewhat introspective. I want to represent how humanity dissolves into spaces, what traces it leaves behind; that process between interacting with a space and no longer being in it has occupied much of my thinking, and now I direct my eye toward that.

Visual Dessert
There’s a quote by Susan Sontag that says: “To photograph is to frame, and to frame is to exclude.” While her statement is completely true, photography for me has been a way of savoring what surrounds me, not excluding it-

Good Time
I think each project can be a great teacher if you listen carefully. Working with large-scale entities is always something I find enlightening, as you do get to see the inner workings and behind the scenes of companies that shape the current discourse and economy.

A Place to Return To
I enjoy working with error, with time, and with chance—slower, more experimental processes where each image becomes almost an event.
