Description from the seller
Liquid Alchemy is a visual reclamation of the South American landscape. This series subverts the historical narrative of extraction, where the land was looted for gold and silver, by transforming its most vital resources into the very precious metals that once drove conquest.
By rendering rivers in radiant gold and the sea in deep metallic blue, the work reveals a fundamental truth: the continent’s real "gold" is not hidden in the soil, but flowing on the surface. These are the world’s true lifelines: a currency of survival that far outvalues the minerals we have historically died for.
My work is a glimpse into everyday life.
I capture ephemeral moments transforming them into eternal memories through my lens. I blend architecture and street photography to create timeless memories.
I have over ten years of experience in photography and my work is a mixture of architecture and street photography, where I create images that tell stories and evoke emotions. I have been featured in Vogue Italy, U+MAG, and Pitch Magazine, and showcased my work in exhibitions like the BLURRED VISIONS International Group Exhibition at Millepiani, Rome
