From an aesthetic of photography and moving towards the action of painting and drawing, his work focuses on compositions that seek to rethink the relationship between the moment and its representation: the methods of registration and, above all, the lost moment trapped in the form of image. His work creates landscapes where the absence becomes visible, because it is composed of images that seem unfinished because they are only traces of memories. His work is no more than a specter where the spectacle of absence is contemplated.
