His work is rooted in a perspective deeply connected to sociology, exploring the relationship between people and the contexts they inhabit. Through photography, he seeks to offer a sensitive and critical vision of reality, where the everyday acquires new resonances and becomes a collective narrative.
Over the past five years, he has developed documentary and multimedia projects in different regions of the country, addressing diverse social issues with an approach that combines rigor and sensitivity. His work has been recognized by public institutions, the media, and society, consolidating a trajectory that bridges the artistic and the social.
He alternates collaborations with various media outlets with the research and development of long-term personal projects, in which the image becomes a space to explore emotions, narratives, and shared memories.
