statement

Every image is a thought. Not just a reflection of a moment, but a gesture that reaches beyond it – into memory, into tension, into hope. My work begins not in provocation or deconstruction, but in the desire to understand. I do not seek to shock or fracture, but to see – and in seeing, to offer something that holds. Something that supports. Because understanding, too, can be an act of resistance.

I move between the analogue and the generative. Between the physical residue of Havana and the algorithmic silence of Berlin. Between light that lingers and pixels that anticipate. I work within the structures of narrative, perception, and technology, not to escape them, but to reveal where they fray. Where meaning stutters.

The digital double is not a self-portrait. It is a reflection of our projections – AI as the carrier of a collective echo, composed entirely of copies. It embodies what we expect to see, not what is. And in this way, it becomes a mask so perfect it forgets its own artifice. Our perception is shaped, coded, reinforced – not by our eyes, but by the culture that teaches them to look.

Art, then, becomes a slow act of excavation. To see differently, one must unsee. To get closer, one must move through the filters. My work asks not for recognition, but for presence, a kind of attention that does not resolve, but listens. A kind of image that trembles under the weight of not-knowing.

There is no truth without empathy. No revelation without care.

To see is to carry – and to be carried.

My work begins there.
