Description
Breaking the boundaries of self-consciousness, dreams of déjà-vus, appreciation and understanding of finding the beauty in imperfections - a Japanese concept called Wabi-Sabi, makes the journey through the pages of the monograph Beyond Inside - an invitation of suggestive interpretation of experiences such as fear, desire and ambition, shown in these photographs.

About the Photographer
I was born in 1982 in Lima, Perú. After graduating in communications, I’ve worked in the advertising field since 2006. In 2009, I moved to Italy and studied photography at ISFCI, the Institute of Photography and Communications in Rome. My works have been exhibited several times at the Tevere Art Gallery in Rome, curated by Luciano Corvaglia.

Since 2019 I’ve been living in London. I feel like a kind of naive witness living in different countries as a foreigner, my photography is the result of recording my experiences as a visual diary, which are sometimes surreal and sometimes abstract. The first time I approached black and white photography I was nine years old, watching the silent films that my grandmother liked to see. When I was at university I had the opportunity to develop and print my photographs by myself and from that moment I realized that it would be my companion forever.
