I'm a visual artist and photographer working across analog and digital media, with a multidisciplinary practice spanning photography, graphic design, video editing, and art direction. My photographic work covers weddings, concerts, live music, and studio and outdoor fashion, blending analog film with digital versatility to capture authentic moments. As a graphic designer, I create covers, posters, and visual identities for bands like Diamante Negro, Desmai and Borgamo Ventura, along with communication and exhibition materials. I've also led art direction for fashion projects, including The Red House by designer Camelia Rá, and worked as art assistant to artists Erik Tlaseca and Wynnie Minerva during their Rijksakademie residencies, alongside independent curatorial work and teaching acrylic painting internationally. My practice moves fluidly between photography, design, moving image, teaching, and curation. I'm always grounded in a hands-on, process-driven approach to image-making.
