No beginning or end

Curator: André Cepeda

No beginning or end

I never defined a path. However, I always knew that I wanted to express what lives inside of me, and that was the most important thing. Photography became my compass. It’s the images that guide me and show me the direction to take. It all started with an impulse, a deep desire to share a vision that I’ve always carried.

From a very young age, I lived in environments full of emotion and intensity. It’s this energy that drives me without a given destination, on a quest to feel alive. I often find myself where there is little distinction between who I am and where I am, or who I’m with. It’s through the deep, intense gazes of the people I photograph that I’m allowed to be myself, and it’s probably this that gives them the freedom to reveal themselves to me.
