I am a Swiss-Mexican photographer whose practice has evolved from street photography toward abstraction, translating external observations into explorations of intrinsic sensations.

Shaped by early and frequent visits to museums, a passion for auteur cinema, and visually creative parents who instilled in me from childhood an understanding of light, composition, and concept, I developed a visual language that aspires to go beyond documentation toward sensation.

I work primarily with natural motifs and contrast the known and sharp with the unknown and volatile—seeking to represent what nature activates in each of us and translate these encounters to a more sensorial level. Drawing from a dual cultural heritage—one that emphasises connection and permeability, the other that understands solitude as fundamental—my work investigates how isolation and belonging coexist.

For me, photography functions as a form of therapy—a means to communicate what remains difficult to articulate through language. Certain emotions resist translation into words; verbalising them would mean losing their essence. The camera becomes the instrument for preserving what speech cannot contain, allowing these states to exist in their original, non-articulated form.

My work has been exhibited at international art fairs including AIPAD New York, Paris Photo, Photo L.A., and Zona MACO. I am currently represented by Galería en Blanco in Baja California Sur, Mexico, and Throckmorton Fine Art in New York.
