<<
Learning to Feel >> is a series of black & white images,
they are about the way I feel things instead about how I see things,
They are taken out of focus in the camera, and sometimes I increased
the blurriness while printing. I did it in order to make you see
with your own eyes, It?s like a visual experience, ?everything is
in the eyes of the beholder?. The images translate the timeless
sensation of being in a universal place. I gave similary titles
titled with a verb indicating process, they give you only an idea
of what the photograph could be about
