Artist Statement

About three years ago I created an Instagram account and started taking photos with my mobile phone. This was my first contact with photography, or at least the first time I was exposing my photos to the world. When I found myself expressing different emotions and feelings through photography and discovered this new visual language, I knew it was just the start…

From the Basque Country but based in Barcelona, I enjoy capturing the street life of the places I visit and the soul of its citizens through street portraits. Creative photography is also an important part of my work that helps me keep inspiration alive.

In love with black and white photography, I love playing with the light and the shadows to reinforce the message I want to transmit with my photos. I like challenging myself to get something beautiful from places, people and/or objects around me in my day to day.

Telling a story through a stranger’s eyes, through the culture and traditions of a place and making people interested in knowing more about my photography subjects are my goals when taking a picture.

As a Grryo storyteller, I’m looking forward to sharing all these new emotions in my photography journey. Welcome to my world!
