Posidonia: Studies in Movement and Light

The photographic series on sea algae serves as a continuous reflection on the meeting point between the ephemeral and the enduring, acting as a starting point for aesthetic contemplation—a visual vocabulary for exploring themes of transience, fluidity, and the nature of tranquility itself.

Stilliving

Stilliving transforms the familiar ritual of spring into something revelatory. This body of work explores wild flora not merely as botanical subject matter, but as a medium for understanding light, fragility, and the suspended moment between growth and dissolution.

The series Gea takes its title from the ancient Greek goddess of the earth, yet this is not a study of abundance or fertility. Instead, it presents us with landscapes emptied of human presence, where sea and land meet in conditions of low light—in the winter cold, the summer dusk, at moments when visibility fades and the world becomes less certain. There is a stricter, more enigmatic aspect of the natural world on display—one that exists independently of human presence and continues to persist on its own terms.

GEA

Elegy of the Future invites viewers into a contemplative landscape where past and future culminate in a single, haunting present. These images stage an encounter with absence—of civilization, of certainty, of linear time itself. What remains are the transparent presences of these mythological entities, water, deserted cities, and memory.

A Study in Dialectical Opposition: The Urban-Wildlife Paradigm

The visual dialogue in this photographic series articulates a profound tension between the organic and the constructed, between what is wild and the manifestations of urbanity. The compositional framework presents, on the one hand, an image of megafauna in a dreaming way that recalls both our fears and instincts and the sublime cityscape of the modern cities.
