Concept: The notion that all these works are based mainly concern related to the world of the abstract geometries and minimalism in its various forms. Philosophical: My attempts are to incorporate these topics into a formal representation and trying to remain between the world of photography, painting and sculpture but not 'belong to any party. The importance of image content in philosophical language, related to Whitehead and Popper with influences Hegelian concept together with the intellectual abstract symbols, I is crucial. Technical: The images were created with analog equipment of the sixties (Hasselblad 500c Series, Nikomat and Olympus OM-1n). I do not use it nor digital systems' based on those computers. It 'a world that respect, but that does not interest me at all. The work in the darkroom, I do it all yourself. The color is the only thing that I can work harder 'but still within certain limits, chemical and physical. I rarely use the usual targets on the camera, only when it is really necessary. utilization instead of the lenses very special designed and manufactured by a third party and sometimes do use old and expired film.
