WATER ECO//ALTER EGO//DISTORTED NARCISSISM

This photographic essay, constructed from distorted waters, references human and mythological narcissism.

The distorted as a reflection of the human being who uses natural resources exclusively for their own benefit.

Water, as the primary source of life, here denounces greed, exploration, and the distortion of ethics in the face of human ambition.

To achieve this visual effect, I go out to shoot on windy, rainy days and in the silver light of a cloudy sky.

Therefore, nature is my accomplice in carrying out this work. The dialogue between the traces of his brushstrokes and my eyes allowed my emotion to give rise to this moment of

creation.
