Over.State

"For me, photography is the missing dot that connects what is deep inside us—which we cannot understand or describe—with the world. A connection that transcends and moves through spacetime in unpredictable, mysterious, and non-linear ways. A link between reality and love. I believe we take pictures because our inner self wants to reconnect with the cosmos. We want to feel close to people, places, objects, and as time goes by, we recognize in them a part of ourselves. With photography, we reveal ourselves to the unknown while preserving a link to the real. Over.State (2011-2019)—the story of a young and lost person trying to feel free and find love—is a personal adventure and my first attempt to depict a poetic representation of existential agony while exploring the emotional variations of the human condition. An effort to understand how we express freedom, intimacy, and closeness; how we seek true connection with the inner self and the other."
