Description: Photography


About the artwork:
I consider my photographs as narratives. I Produce stories with one photograph. Each photograph tells a different story, and each story is distinctive. 
I create worlds in a fraction of a second.                            
I always use people in my photographs. People relate to people. Once in a while I use animals and people in the same narrative.
My recent series “Shells of vanity” is a body of work which investigates different situations in life. Relationships are the main subject of the work. I created surreal and absurd situations of apparently everyday life.
In a time where digital photography is accessible to all, anywhere, anytime, I try to stimulate the viewer by looking at my work a bit longer than usual. I try to make the viewer think, ponder, and ask questions that the viewer answers with a question of his own.
