Statement:
Confined Space
The Confined Space is part of the idea of pathology, the staging seeks to portray a fragment of a society that permits media to bombard it with banality, thus fracturing its sensitivity.
I perform a staging for the camera to record through photography. I create atmospheres to reflect this artificial reality through the narrative of the stories told by my images.
I am not interested if my subject is considered original. What I seek is to capture a fragment of its immediate reality. |
