I use photo-manipulation as a vehicle to create new realities that blur the lines between reality and fiction. My practice focuses on colour manipulation and the study of perspective, architecture and the space as an urban/cultural landscape. My images aspire to provide the viewer some sort of escapism experience, from a mere visual aesthetic enjoyment to a deeper connection with the further political and conceptual underlying elements. I use both analogue and digital techniques.
