Depth before decoration
Every frame is built on one clear idea and a real sense of distance. If a piece needs an effect to survive, the idea was not finished.
The studio
A composed object, never a pile that stacks up.
We started in a single room above a print shop on Rua da Boavista, making portraits for musicians who could not afford a crew. The constraint became the method. Fewer lights, longer looks, one idea per frame, and a stubborn refusal to hand over anything that only works as a thumbnail.
Seven years on, the work spans portraiture, macro studies, celestial landscapes and generative pieces built frame by frame. The tools changed. The standard did not: an image should read as one object arriving, and it should still be alive when it comes to rest.
