My practice is based on an experimental approach to early photographic processes and my interest in the materiality and fragility of a photographic medium - glass plates.

Specializing mainly in the wet plate collodion process, traditionally used for portraits and landscapes, I create pointless images that are between photography and suprematist geometry.

I appreciate the simplicity, immediacy and imperfection of the work received. I am looking for forms that reveal the mood and feelings of connection with the reality surrounding me.My practice is based on an experimental approach to early photographic processes and my interest in the materiality and fragility of a photographic medium - glass plates.
