NOW
Year: 2026 (ongoing)
Two cameras, two cities, a single instant.
After two years apart, NOW stems from a premise as absurd as it is devastating: turning chance into an oracle to decide the fate of a extinct love. Through simultaneous captures, a former couple scours the daily noise for a coincidence, a visual rhyme, or a synchronicity to justify a reunion.
This work does more than document the present; it engages with the emotional residue of the past through diaries, notes, and archival imagery. Yet this archive seeks neither solace nor nostalgia: it demands a verdict. In opening these pages, the observer abandons neutrality to become the judge of a fragmented intimacy. Does the sign truly exist, or is it merely the invention of someone clinging to memory?

My artistic practice investigates human intimacy, chance, and emotional archives in the digital age. I approach photography not merely as a tool for documentation, but as an active mechanism for inquiry: blurring the boundaries between personal memory, performance, and conceptual play.

L’home del Sac (The Sack Man)
Year: 2014
Technique: Medium format analogue photography
The path to survive in the Pyrenean and Pre-Pyrenean area has historically consisted of eliminating borders and turning the mountain into a place with no limits. From the Second World War and Spanish Civil War and until the Carlist era, the Pyrenean border has been crossed by thousands of people. Routes by foot, intertwining paths, shelters and houses where 'paquetaires' and smugglers followed clandestine paths, most often collaborating with neighbors and locals, in order to survive.
Crossing the mountain range, at the Oriental Pyrenean side, I walked the Alta Cerdanya's paths and routes that my ancestors followed; shepherds, smugglers and, most especially, mountain men and women. 'L'Home del Sac' (The Sack Man) is an image series composed of fragments of landscape in different directions along this nearly 30 Km-long route.

Back to Basics
Year: 2010-2013
Technique: Film Photography. Digital Print 50x60 cm and photo projection.
Back to Basics is a project that explores human nature though the natural poetic world that surrounds us. This work is a tour through an emotional landscape, our own, guided by an outdoor landscape. Based on the literary work 'Nature', by American transcendentalist Ralph Waldo Emerson, I have created three sets of pieces which have been built from the confrontation between two factors that influence our behavior: genetics and learning.
