I use photography as a device for thought in action, to try and symbolically transform the
environment in which I exist day to day. It is to me a great tool to reach surprising ways of looking
at a given place and its specific situations. Eventually something happens to cut open a flash
of visual poetry, arising from the cold, sleek surface of western lifestyle as it usually appears
to me, too violent and dull.
I work in relation with devices, that I experience through my own senses, and playfully attempt
to translate in a visual language, to give it a shape, colors. Each photograph is a new unit
for measuring the gaps between my own intentions and the result of a pre-conceived, opaque
program I manipulate through the camera. I learn from it.
This way, photography allows me to be present in various visual spaces and take a deeper
look at established facts and customs, life-changing rites of passage, the sudden revelation
of leftover or shapeless signs, the changing behaviors of wind and rain and its direct
effects on human behaviors (vice-versa), the silent resistance of senses to the fierce watchwords
of capitalism. By making photographs I wish to celebrate the unnatural beauty that occurs
when looking at it, and the precious time it gives to understand further what was before this
instant, and imagine what’s coming next.
