I was interested in an “out of place” concept. Living in “Sin City” Las Vegas, I thought it’d look really cool to recreate one of my favorite photographer’s work, Peter Lindbergh. The idea of an angel walking the busy streets of Vegas, amongst all the people, looked really cool in my mind. And it also lends itself to open interpretation.

My two favourite pictures I took this last week at the Atlantic Coast in Uruguay.Somehow, they both make me feel happy and at the same time lonely. I can relate it with how we all feel around the world these days, weeks, months, well this past year, isolated. Trying to escape something or avoiding it at all costs, knowing that people close to us could'nt made it through. Or not knowing what could happen next, but still, keep on going.At least, that is what these pictures tell me, or how I feel about them.Both taken with my DJI Mavic Air 2.A little about me:I am a photographer from Uruguay, landscape lover. I recently got into photography, about 2 years now. I've now realized how much stories we can tell with meaningful pictures no matter the gear we use, it´a all about how we feel and see things to make a moment look like a story.

I’m a London based artist specializing in both hand drawn and digital illustration. My work takes prominent influence from childhood nostalgias lived in Japan through the attention in colour and motifs, and is reminiscent of traditional and contemporary Japanese culture. This exploration is visually channelled through fragmented memories and my sentiment for Japanese cuisine, nature and old films I grew up watching. The characters I create primarily focus on the female form, and playfully embrace the bold yet ethereal side of femininity in a casually surreal way. My illustrations allow me to explore and navigate my identity as a woman of mixed Japanese heritage living in the UK.

If the sea could speak would it tell us stories about all the promises people made and broke? If the sea could speak would it tell how heavy loneliness is? If the sea could speak would it tell us how it feels to feel it all? Location: Hvar, Croatia 2017.

This piece is about chosen family, and the bonds we make as we grow older. In this illustration there are two people who's original family bonds were shaky but found each other and a canine companion to complete their own little family.

Poe's poem 'Alone' inspired me to paint this. When a soul is truly alone, not one being can make it better.

This photogrpah is from my oingoing project titled, "Radiation". Radiation is a series of portraits taken with monochromatic UV photography, a technique used in dermatology to reveal the damage caused by sun exposure, among other studies. The purpose of the work is to raise awareness of our skin as a protective shield against an outside world that is progressively becoming more uninhabitable due to global warming. The project uses a direct/scientific technique through an aesthetical point of view; it presents the imperceptible appearance of our organism as an analogy for how we do not consider global warming alarming because it’s not immediately apparent, though its effects are interacting with our bodies without us noticing, leaving behind a trace in our skin.

The details are usually more important to me than the context, I make many attempts to even take photos, staying for hours in front of what captures my attention to read and understand it, all my work is so far without editing: "from the source to your pupils".

This series focuses on natural beauty. Mute and earthy tones. Modest set up. The flowers to ground those earth tones and the concept of natural beauty.

My self portrait work is an exploration of quiet confidence and calm, moments of deep thinking and reflection, and most importantly a weekly practice to improve my photography. I’ve been pairing my self portraits with poems that I love. Poetry creates space for empathy, helps us to see our common humanity. Poetry has also offered me an opportunity to stay in and reflect on and heal from memories of painful experiences. I’m growing as a photographer and post pandemic when it’s more possible to photograph others, I hope to continue with self portraits as an exercise in self exploration, an exploration of my secrets if you will.

SYNCHRONICITY

This piece is a gentle reminder to myself that we live between lines. There are moments where an explanation takes away from the rawness of the circumstance. Moments where no explanation is needed.

The view from Ben Nevis. Hiking Ben Nevis was challenging but totally rewarding. I was prepared for it but I wasn't prepared for what I found during the ascent. It started with a brick of juice here, a plastic bag there... but as I paid more attention to it, I saw that very often there was trash on the sides of the path. At some point, I couldn't keep walking leaving the wrapper of a chocolate bar. It was trapped by a rock in the middle of a water stream, very visible but still there. So at that time I told my partner I was going to pick it up. From that moment, we started picking up all the trash we could carry on our way up and specially paying attention to it during the descent. Honestly, your knees suffer so much on the rocks as you are coming down that picking up litter was a good distraction. There are initiatives to clean the mountain lead by volunteers, that have found the most strange things including half a toilet or underwear... What if everyone would ensure to leave no trace? What if the next time you see some rubbish you make a little effort to pick it up and put it in a bin so we can all enjoy this magnificent view?

<3October 2019, before the pandemic began, I had the opportunity of being the photographer of the first EVER drag queen wedding in Mexico City. the ceremony was so exciting because it was the first time I, and everyone in the crowd got to witness what love is all about.love is about celebrating existence as it is. about choosing who u want to be, who u want to be with, and what positive impact u want to have on others. its about respect, and acceptance of differences. love is about creating a safe space for people. its about communicating with our bodies and our feelings. its about creating spaces where we can feel free to think and do what we want to.this wedding was the expression of self love and love for others. the crowd was full with unique people that made the energy so profound that we all couldn't believe we where alive witnessing, living that moment.the best part of having my camera there, was that I was also in drag, so I was part of not just the wedding, not just the photographer, I was part of the community. a community that shares the love of all bodies together, without sex or gender defining us. it felt as if my life guided me to this feeling of loving myself and with that, being able of loving others.love is all, love is you.<3
