I was born in Lima, Peru and lived there most of my life. Just over five years ago I moved to England.

Since I was a child I really liked drawing and painting. I studied Graphic Design in Lima and that gave me the opportunity to learn about a wide variety of materials such as watercolour paints, Chinese ink and illustration techniques. This was also the time I started to get more interested in Photography.

I enjoy meeting people from different cultures. I have traveled through Europe, Britain, Morocco, South and North America where everything I saw and experienced has been my source of inspiration, particularly nature. 

 

During lockdown I began to suffer from depression. This was one of the darkest moments of my life in England. I decided to return to Peru with the intention of improving my mental health and wellbeing. I took a trip to the Amazon jungle where one of my best friends provided the material to do cyanotypes together. Not long after my negative thoughts were replaced by ideas and desires to experiment more with this photographic process that involves contact with nature, creativity and that opens many possibilities since it can be applied in different mediums.

 

I will be eternally grateful to my friend Julia, nature and blueprints for allowing me to create my Blue World.
