ABOUT
ARTIST STATEMENT
My passion for photography arose from my relationship with nature, my love for her most beautiful and wild sides. Nature drives me to try to create striking atmospheres, marked by light and beauty, my aesthetic beacons. My photography resonates with my love of the great outdoors, my quest for extraordinary light. A pursuit that thrills my independent spirit. Over time, as I gained experience, I understood that it is always nature who decides; she chooses the elements and brings them together for compose a work of art. We do not create, we can only endeavor to understand and interpret what nature is felling us. I aspire to uncluttered images that go right to the heart of the matter, depicting only what is essential. Suggestion and minimalism fuel my photographic intention. I do not seek to show a subject for what it is, but what it expresses. This is how I tell a story and articulate what I’m feeling.
