Visual arts
“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 Wild One
About a year ago, I discovered that every Sunday in downtown Milan there’s a vintage car gathering. I started photographing there just to make aesthetically pleasing images, but it’s actually turning into a detailed story full of passion and sacrifice.

I See You
Shooting on film forces me to be present and to carefully choose what I want to capture. For me, taking someone’s photo is a gesture of affection, a way of saying: I see you.
-
Soft Focus
Small details, walks, portraits, travels, places I stayed at, spaces that felt like home. No matter the setting, my work has been very much about emotions and intimacy.

Lost in Transit
Film photography was a way to develop how I depict a story and emotion, and that’s since progressed into film directing work—particularly in commercial, fashion, and documentary.

Drinking, play, drifting, drugs
I’m less interested in clear narratives and more interested in creating an atmospheric illusion of life as it’s actually lived, messy and unresolved, mundane yet surreal.

Faces From Hell
My work is rooted in raw, candid street photography. I rarely ask permission and also use flash; once a moment becomes staged, the truth disappears. My approach may be unorthodox, but it keeps things honest… and well lit.

El Dorado
Las palabras que más han estado rondando mi cabeza últimamente son: “Séptimo aniversario de Enmarcaciones El Dorado”.
-
Boundaries
I love to lean into my bread and butter of shooting women on film, outside preferably. I find their curves and femininity easiest to capture and achieve this flow state of creativity.

Where am I
I constantly have a voice of self-doubt just telling me to not go to certain places, to not stop and take that picture or that I'll get in trouble if someone sees me.
-
Trying new things never hurts
What I found out was that photography isn't about the camera or gear you are using, it's about how it makes you feel while using it.

Too Hot to Go Outside and Shoot
Landscapes don’t judge, so I feel at ease taking photos amongst it. I’m drawn to the aesthetics that surround people's lives, extensions of their personality, especially the ones they are unaware of.

How to Despair to Infinity
Pienso que la melancolía, el enamoramiento, la soledad, el miedo y las obsesiones (cualquiera de ellas), son estados que distorsionan y modifican el tiempo y el espacio de uno mismo; todo se vuelve “un poco raro”, y yo vivo navegando ahí.
