Poetic photography in need of distillation to be read!
Very particular visions with special moments, without neglecting the frames and the compositions, all through a wide-angle lens, in reflections, in low and high angles, of the places and their constructions, of the people compared to the places and their constructions.
Constant development project - "The Great Illusion":
The human beings seek and build objects and buildings of megalomaniac sizes and proportions. Preferably, in their daily life, they live surrounded by them. These objects and constructions when compared to these human beings still diminish them more. They make them, reinforcing the tiny beings they are. It is this relationship of greatness, reinforced by the search for the greatness of the Human Being, that this project explores. Through the chopped and contrasted photographic plans and the reflections in the cars, I always shoot with wide-angle lenses, widening the difference between the human beings, who I isolate and capture in "special" moments and what surrounds them. With this set of "objects", techniques and technology, it is in large cities that I explore the project, applying the concept in a mix of travel photography, documentary photography and street photography resulting in fineart photography by joãozero ®.
All this in a obsession for the right moment in a different place!
