Topographies of Fragility

My intention is to highlight the violent damage suffered by the places I photograph, through the materiality of the printed image, by manipulating and altering my own personal landscapes. In these landscapes that at first glance would seem pristine and immaculate, we then notice their decline, their deterioration; this becomes a wake-up call, a way of questioning our relationship with the natural world. It is said that a wrinkled piece of paper can never regain its original shape; the trace persists. In the same way, nature which is disrespectfully invaded is forever broken, and many times unrecoverable.
