Artist Statement
This image belongs to a body of work called Bodyscapes. It is a quest for the unknown, a rediscovery of my involuntary consciousness,one perfect asymmetry in an infinite world which I find in the female form. I experiment with the nude female body because is the source of my inspiration, I always felt the need to photograph her, I am convinced that I unconsciously wanted to capture the essence of the female beauty and it was paramount to fulfill my artistic expression and unique style of creating images in a nonlinear , almost mathematical way or in the context of a story , dissecting her aesthetics piece by piece.
This image was shot using a roll of 35 mm film, it could be color or in black & white, then the roll gets developed and scanned, slightly retouched in Photoshop a tiny bit, just for cleaning & lighting purposes, and finally it’s printed large scale or medium size to communicate across their dimensions.
Photography is the media of my choice but as a kid I was attracted to painting: especially Surrealism, Cubism and Expressionism, but it didn’t come easy to me, so I took a 35 mm camera and started to interpret my vision my own way with it.
