Portraits of dancers right after a performance.

Photography and film give me an opportunity to fulfill my curiosity for the mysteries of everyday encounters. I am always interested in people’s vitality and fate, how we shape the world around us. On an emotional and narrative level, I am interested in looking at human bonds and at people’s being, both physical and mental: love relationships, family, friendship, childhood, aging, physical fragility, courage, desire and hope. It’s this universality that creates a bond, touches us as we recognize common existential questions and feelings.
