Creating a brighter world, reflecting humanity – a "Substance of Life!"
Contemporary Art, Photography
My Background
Biography
Growing up in Belize, Central America, my love for photography was sparked by the vivid imagery within the pages of National Geographic Magazine. Each issue opened a window to the hidden and often inaccessible corners of our world, revealing the intricate geometry of diverse landscapes, the vibrant hues of exotic flora and fauna, and the rich tapestry of global cultures.
These experiences shaped my deep appreciation for the world’s infinite yet elusive beauty, inspiring me to capture it through my lens. Photography, for me, is a means of creating connections—an opportunity to bring appreciation, foster awareness, and awaken curiosity about the majestic mysteries that surround us.
Through each photograph, I aim to present a brighter world, reflecting the essence of humanity—what I call the “Substance of Life.”

THE LITTLE DETAILS THAT SHAPE HUMANITY
I have long been captivated by the history, art, and intricate mosaics of the Byzantine Empire. This fascination inspired me to develop a unique technique where I use photographs of flowers as the “tesserae”—the small, glass-like pieces traditionally used in mosaics—to assemble the final image of my subject.
In my work, I blend the disciplines of photography and digital painting, creating my pieces, a neo-pointillism technique.
