During the period of confinement, because of the covid-19, I was searching for new photographic themes at home. I began exploring the medium of the self-portrait. I have used objects, tools, and fabrics of my everyday life in dialogue with my face and body with the help of a flash and some reflectors. This slow photographic procedure became, day-by-day, a profound process of personal introspection. The photos became darker and more esoteric, like cryptic allegories, theater of roles, or intimate short stories with their own particular atmosphere. And finally, I`ve used the photographic act as a therapeutic medium against the pandemic fear.
