COMPOSITIONS
The musical language that best represents me as a composer is electroacoustic music.
However, I have created various compositions in both contemporary contexts and ancient styles, drawing from my knowledge of music spanning from ancient Greece to the Baroque period.
I am particularly drawn to archaic instruments, which offer a very limited range of sounds, such as the tibia, the pentatonic flute, the kithara, and the most rudimentary percussion instruments. From these, I seek to extract sound qualities that resonate with today’s sensibilities.
fine art photography
I began my journey in photography as an amateur, later transitioning to fine art photography, inspired by artists and professional photographers.
To me, the frame resembles a musical score, organizing forms and rhythmic elements, tones, and color blends, as well as consonances and dissonances. In it, I translate the dynamics of music — which unfolds over time — into the two-dimensional spatiality of the image.
My photography has evolved stylistically over the years, shaped in a non-systematic and non-linear fashion due to my music commitments, which have, at times, consumed almost all of my time. I am particularly drawn to alternative processes, such as off-camera photography and lensless techniques.
I personally print my fine art works using a state-of-the-art professional Giclée system, along with prestigious papers from Hahnemühle and Canson, which provide prints that closely align with my artistic vision.
