"You try to have a world in your heart
And you can't express it in words."

A fool (Behind every fool there is a village)
Song by Fabrizio De André


Born and raised in a port city deeply connected to industrial change, he found his passion in photography as a means to explore and represent diversity in society. Trained in visual research and photojournalism, he made his debut with “R-existences,” a participatory video about marginalized local communities.

Her photographs have been exhibited in Paris and published in “Independent Photography,” with a participatory photography project on albinism. In 2023, her project “Dolores” was presented at the Phodar Biennial.

Currently focused on work on environmental conflicts in Costa Rica as part of Ester Sanna‘s doctoral research.
