Every time I visit this place, it affects me in different ways. It could be the sunlight, the sea breeze, and its distinct smells, or even who might be there sharing the place. These differences can be seen in the “portraits” of the rocks—colors, film textures, movement, and people.
This unusual rock formation is situated in a picturesque location along the northern coast of São Paulo. It is a popular destination for bouldering climbers who seek to ascend its heights and serves as a natural barrier protecting the waters of the Bay of Fortaleza, where it previously supported a small coral reef. However, it has since become increasingly impacted by overcrowding and the effects of rising sea temperatures, showing the delicate balance between humans enjoying nature and the impacts on the environment.
Shot in the Spring at Costa Brava and the second exposure in the Autumn of São Paulo.
The Bruma, or Cacimba, is a fog that appears in Portugal, at the atlantic coast. This one arrived suddenly in the middle of the afternoon and engulfed all beachgoers.
In November 2021, I went to the Pantanal region in Brazil to be with Onçafari, a NGO that tracks jaguars in the region. With the help of the Institute IDS, we slept at the Refúgio da Ilha Ecolodge. I went equipped with an analog film camera (black and white pictures), digital camera for stills and another one for videos.
City Lines - Series of photographs of the architecture of cities and buildings. The rounded or edgy patterns, or a combination of both. 2015-2016.
This series came by a “mistake”, the 35mm roll was already exposed so I got duplicate images. The results were insanely surprising, a mix of two photographers and two countries (Argentina and Brazil), but extremely connected, like it was done on purpose.
Series of photographs of the strange geometry of stairs.
If seen with a different perspective, stairs can create some beautiful and sometimes unrecognisable patterns. Most of this pictures were taken in Barcelona, city of Gaudí. Another one was taken from a Le Corbusier house. 2012-2017.
Series of pictures on the beach in Brazil. The full moon was so strong that with only a few seconds of exposure, I could get a bright picture of the landscape. All chromatic photos were taken at night with the moonlight and all the monochromatic photos were taken during the day. 2016.
When I travelled to Scandinavia in 2015, I was intrigued and, rather, surprised by the cleanness and emptiness of some of the open areas. But no place called my attention like the Skansen open-air museum. With a vast area open to the public, but with some of the attractions closed because of the cold season, it had a bleak atmosphere. If someone told me that the park receives more than 1.3 visitors each year, I wouldn't believe it at the time. The scenery is gloomy and sad. But even with that, I wouldn't say it was apocalyptic, because the buildings were well preserved and everything else was tidy and organized, even with some pile of leaves on the ground, giving a unique charm to the place.
