How would you describe your work?

I like to explore and to erase the boundaries between photography and videography.

What inspires you?

The night is my preferred time. I am a Flaneur. Flanerie, simply put, is an art of strolling and looking. This activity makes me observe and discover the world in a creative way.

Can you speak about your process?

I like experimenting. Every project is a new adventure with different rules and style.

I adopted what the great photographer Harry Callahan said: " I think when you get a style you're sort of dead."

How did you become interested in art?

Since a young age I was interested in art and considered it as a nobel activity.

I was always attracted to photography but I didn't like the analog-chemical process so I started my artistic activity only after digital took over. I was at a relatively late age then.

Do you have any favorite artists, movies, books, or quotes?

I have many favorite artists but I don't follow anyone directly. Among the photographers

Lee Friedlander, Daido Moriyama (wabi sabi aesthetic) and more. Filmmakers I especially like are Jim Jarmush and Wim Wenders.

What advice do you have for younger artists?

"When you have to shoot, shoot - Don't talk"
