Look at everything. Don`t close your eyes to the world around you. Look and become curious and interested in what there is to see.
John Cage - “Silence - Lectures and Writings”

This series of images is a reinterpretation of a musical archive, capturing an intimate visual language. A nostalgic look emerges from the shapes and textures of the paper, reconstructing reflections of memories.

I think about the image musically, trying to create times, rhythms and even harmonies from it. The search for different melodic forms acts as a means of abstract self-representation, where I record my reality. In order to provoke the curiosity of those who come across these works, I leave the music present within these scores unrevealed as well as their rhythms and melodies.

The intrinsic and close connection with music, an evocation of memories in my family environment and a fascination with musical scores and writing make this series a set of fragments that I think are part of my own identity.
