PEOPLE SERIES
I attempt to evoke the different moods trough the color and the shapes of the planes (sometimes with a human face), in an urban context with different atmospheric effects to show the feelings of the characters in the neighborhood, using strong silhouettes, where the “how” or the “what” only take importance to reveal different aspects of life trough the everyday, leading the “Voyeur” to some place with some sense of the familiarity more than to a specific place. With the same reasoning, human figures of someone in particular are not present because the intention is to capture specific moments in time without falling in the anecdotal.
