Conceptual: Honorable Mention 2021 (amateur)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
“A Tribute to the Earth”- Ongoing project - In my work nature and landscapes are the main subject matters, together with the human body as an aesthetical incorporation to the frame. Throughout the use of forms and shapes I try to blend the body in the landscape. In this dialogue between body and nature my intention is to pay tribute to the environment which lately has been our only means of escape to an open and safe space and also works as a symbol of immortality. Both the landscape and body are presented in a physical and emotional raw state. In my body of work, I try to depict different elements of our natural landscape, the ocean, forest, lakes, pines and rocks. With this visual representation of the environment I’m emphasizing the connection between Human and Earth.
AUTHOR
I've been fascinated by the art of capturing life in images for as long as I can remember. Born and raised in Argentina, having lived in China, I finally settled down in Miami. As a boy, before I had a chance to buy my own camera, I often secretly took my father’s Nikon and used every opportunity to see the world through its lens. But, the only way to keep it a secret was to take no photos. I found my peace and passion in simply looking through the lens and imagining what the picture would look like. All those magic images had to stay in my mind, but I was eager to share my vision with others. As soon as I got my own camera my adventure as a photographer began. I was able to travel the world and learn from photographers from numerous countries. I saw magic in understanding how different artists perceive their environment. Different minds see different aspects of the same scene and learning those details allowed me to develop my own unique way of capturing the life's moments. I treasure every chance I get to be outside, catching images of emotions, street life, and the beauty of nature and architecture. I’m an adventurer who has a passion for sharing my view of the world with others.
