About

Born in Cali, raised in Paris, lived in Bogota, based in Tokyo.

“When we travel and find ourselves before hitherto unknown people and cultures, we get swathed in a dim need to reinterpret life and the new realities that shake our comfortable foundations. We then realize that we all conceive life, home, pleasure, time, space, work, and death, in countless different ways. To be able to listen to the stories of others and transmit that otherness, that is the purpose of movement.”

“I believe that Art and Photojournalism are means to observe, reflect, document and theorize our time, but they do not reach their true raison d’être until they become actively and positively participative, working on communication strategies for development.”

“Light is the ink through which the seal of reality is imprinted onto
the glistening surface of our memories. “
