• Biography
  I am a photographer who practices different genres, with a predilection for experimentation. In recent years I deepened the search on a personal language, an "intimate vision", which allowed me to go beyond the fact of real and the visible. This is the genesis and also the meaning of my photographic research. I received several awards in photographic competitions, including through publications, and I exhibited my works in personal and collective exhibitions.
