PHOTOGRAPHIC DRIVE

︎︎︎

         The complexity of contemporary realities - especially in this digital age in which we are inserted - makes us not pay attention to the details and subtleties of the physical environment that surrounds us, especially the social relations in the urban context and the interactions that certain spaces provide. Whether in daydreams of travel or in day-to-day wanderings, the amount of stimuli and information we receive is such that it prevents us from assimilating and understanding the totality of the context through which we pass through.
        Photography is a tool that allows us to break with this inertia. By taking a photo, you direct your focus to what catches your attention. comes to appreciate it, to analyze it and, little by little, to understand it. The record is the result of this personal perception of the object.
        A record is a memory. the image is an activator of memories that always brings the imminence of the lived experience regardless of time. When you review a set of photos made by you, your mind is induced to revisit your own past, it induces you to reflect on your state of mind, your paths, your expectations, your interactions.
        My photographs do not have a premeditated objective of composing a photographic project, nor do they initially start from a commitment to art. To photograph, for me, is to record what the relapsed eyes of everyday life don't see; it is an external extension of our consciousness and a guarantee of the vitality of my memories.
        The records I show here are static captures in the midst of a constant and intense flow of my body around the world over the last seven years. These are photos that seek, under my gaze and perception, to frame human interactions, singularities, stories, urban daily life, landscapes, architectures of different cultures, encompassing mostly European countries, Morocco and Brazil.
