About
Photographer specializing in the process and sensibility of the medium of photography. ✨
My inspiration comes from the song by Björk - Army of Me. The text, the music, and the visual design stimulated the idea of creating my fictional beings. Using the collage technique, I combine fragments of fauna and flora with the human body and create mutants. I simulate a 3D image by creating an object inserted into the box. I achieve the illusion of depth perception by creating "peepshow boxes", where the viewer can see the creatures and examine them only by looking into the hole. At that moment there will be an encounter with my Army.
