A Tribute to Mario Cravo Neto
The brazilian photographer Mário Cravo Neto was my master.
When I started photographing, more than twenty years ago, every new work I had I would
come to him for advice. He was always there.
Besides that I have always been a great fan of his work and I used it as inspiration for
my own.
He died in 2009 and this series of nudes is my tribute to him.
