I’ve always been fascinated by arts, but I only discovered photography through Instagram at the age of 15. At the beginning I took simple photos with my mobile phone, but soon I realized I wanted to learn more. As my interest in photography grew, I started to search and try new techniques, leading me to Photoshop.

The first image I edited on Photoshop was published in March, 2015. Since then it’s been a long way. Everything I know I learned by myself, watching tutorials about Photoshop on Youtube.

Every day I try to improve my skills and attempt new concepts. I found in photo manipulation a daily challenge to deconstruct and reconstruct my own reality which I post on my Instagram account.

For the last two years, I’ve been composing surreal images merging unexpected objects, figures and locations using real-life photographs. I try to create a dream-like world through my images where everything is possible. I believe there’s no limit to imagination and creativity.

At the moment I’m living in Lisbon, Portugal and studying at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the University of Lisbon (Faculdade de Belas Artes da Universidade de Lisboa) majoring in Multimedia Art.

    that man is very poorly photoshopped into the picture, and the scale is very off. The man is GIANT and the stairs are WAY too long compared to the size of the windows.

    The picture of the water looks like it was a picture of the sun taken with a handheld waterproof camera made in 2002 that just got wet all over

    As I continue to explore my passion for photography and photo manipulation, I've been intrigued by the possibility of using art to connect with broader themes like nature and human expression.

    This aligns with artists like Daniel Popper, whose work explores our interaction with nature through sculptural art. Drawing inspiration from such interdisciplinary approaches can truly broaden one's creative horizons.
