Personal projects are to me a way to investigate the reality. The main themes are migrations, belonging and environmental crisis — from wildfires and droughts in the context of the Anthropocene, to the complex relationship between humanity, nature and the animal world.
Commissioned work combines a narrative and intimate sensibility with a documentary approach, building bridges between observation and inner experience.
