My interest in photography began as therapy. Following a car accident in 1990, I suffer a spinal injury that primarily affects me on the right side of my body (right hand only answer me and I need a crutch to move around). In May 2002, when the Foundation spinal cord injury, which came to do rehailitación, created a visual studio. So I borrowed a camera and started taking photos. This gives rise to my liking, peers encouraged me a lot, saying that was good photos and I applied it.

The disability I suffer, I assumed a myriad of problems to trigger the camera: There are plenty of pictures that I can not take the angle, balance, speed, accessibility to the stage, the weight of equipment (carrying a Tripod is very complicated for me), etc. In addition, most cameras are prepared for right and its configuration, especially in digital cameras, often based on a combination of keys or buttons for me, is impossible to use.

To compensate for these shortcomings frames trying to find different, unusual. My need to look at the place where floor (to prevent tripping), I can see details that usually go unnoticed. I am fascinated by the reflections and shadows and distortions of reality they produce. It's almost like an obsession, and whenever I go out, as my friend Adele, a "pillar images, usually find photos with this theme.
