The Game of Life
I´m available to do photographic and post-production works, workshops and events anywhere around the world.
I was always interested in the arts and design, devoting much time to the drawing. Even before I devote to photography I had some influences that followed carefully, for example: MCEscher, Magritte and Salvador Dali.
These three authors have some things in common, they all re-interpreted the world around them in their own way, recreating reality based on optical illusion, so it can be said that are part of a Surrealist style.
In 2007 I finished a degree in Decorative Arts, in "Escola Superior de Educação de Beja". In 2008 I moved to Lisbon and complete the Advanced Photography (2008) Conceptual Photography (2009) courses, both in Oficina da Imagem.
At this moment I´m dedicated exclusively to photography, and I intend to produce a differentiated and high quality work, different from other authors.
