I capture Livings.
I became a photographer to step away from myself, my personality, my own misconceptions of the world. I photograph to communicate moments frozen in time and space with all of their reality. I do not take photos to sugarcoat someone else’s reality, or to create an aesthetic representation, instead I strive to transmit messages from other humans/beings/streets/objects that we grow apart every moment.
I’ve felt how even the streets i’ve grew up in started feeling different when I had a camera in my hand. I feel like whenever i’m in a photographic artistic persona, it is the exact opposite of what I can exert in my own social self. It grounds me down.
The photos I create are thus reflections of moments in some space and time, with many different stakeholders, only captured because at some point my existence was in close enough proximity with them to observe and feel a connection.
Borderline Studios is a project of my personality, my past, and my culture where I balance on the border-line of real and fantasy.
