I discovered B&W film photography while studying chemistry in the mid ‘80s and for the next 20 years I spent most of my time printing and experimenting in the darkroom.
Working as a professional photographer for several magazines, I started shooting portraits & fashion at the start of my career and moved to abstracts and landscapes later on.
Years of experience in the darkroom, has brought me to apply my creativity in the digital world and has opened new doors for me to perceive the world around me.
Upon my arrival in Australia years ago, my photographic and artistic path started with the abstracted natural world after which I transitioned to abstract urban architecture. Currently, I am working on a new series of dense, richly colour saturated images.
The transition to bright, sharp and colorful work is the result of being strongly influenced by the intense and vivid light that this amazing continent, Australia offers. My eyes can see and perceive the intensity and power of this light. My imagination thrives with new forms of the natural landscapes and seascapes as well as with stimulating cityscapes, all immersed in crystal clear skies.
During 30 years in fine art photography, I have been honored to receive several awards and participate in 40+ international exhibitions, including several exhibitions in Victoria where I currently live and work. My images have made their way to many international private and public collections.
While life keeps transforming and evolving, no matter where and when, my camera is ‘at the ready’ to immortalize the here and now and give it a new life and form.
