Résumé

Whether they are of Abu Dhabi, California, Egypt or Emilia, all of the images he produces are lit with a constant physical light and sentiment ; elements that this photographer seems to always have with him the way he does with his camera bag, and through which all he wants to do is observe the world.

I find such an aesthetic to be more that of a painter than a photographer somehow. Better yet, that of a post-documentary or neo-pictorialist photographer, who experiences and conceives his work to be the expressive gesture of an artist for whom the subject is above all the opportunity for a tremendous but constant variation in his view of the world.
