statement

I am an observer and my camera like a shadow follows me wherever I go. My imagery explores spaces without limitations, I recreate the world with my own visual language.
The image ëPuppetí symbolizes the solitude and destiny of man in his environment. I believe colour is an integral part of how we view the world around us and can have a powerful psychological effect on our moods and emotions. To convey this I have emphasized the blue hue to create the maximum atmospheric impact.
Through my art I find some of the answers and perhaps a reason to believe.
