transmutation
Water is seen as a majestic element, synonymous with life, purity and freedom, which is in continuous transmutation or transformation, caused by natural and anthropic effects, in a current world where the consequences of climate change show great consequences.
In this photography series, we can observe these facets and, likewise, understand the importance of caring for and preserving water and other natural resources necessary for the subsistence of human beings. For a society where economic growth and that has left aside, environmental sustainability. (Ongoing project).
high mountain landscapes
High Mountain Landscapes is a documentary photo essay parallel to the "High Mountain" project, in which, based on the work of Erwin Kraus, a mountaineer and photographer who made records of the Colombian high mountains during the first half of the 20th century, I I have proposed rediscovering those scenarios and landscapes that still remain, which in turn, have been transformed either by nature itself or by human beings in their intrinsic relationship, through the last decades, in order not only to bring them to memory, but also to highlight the importance of the high mountain ecosystems and geography of Colombia.

Journey through Bolivia
Every trip begins weeks or even months before its completion. This is how the journey through Bolivia began six months ago, with the planning, research and preparation of the necessary equipment for the trip. Bolivia being a country with many scenic and cultural attractions, we decided to visit the western part of the country, leaving the Amazon jungle and the landscapes of the Santa Cruz region for another future trip.
In these images, you can find the landscapes of the southern part of the country where the vast Salar de Uyuni reveals its majesty, both in terms of territory and fauna. The imposing Cordillera Real that crosses the country with its emblematic mountains, valleys and lagoons giving rise to unique landscapes. Sunsets and views of Lake Titicaca in the north of the country, thus reflecting different ecosystems and natural attractions that make up Bolivia. (2018)

stone paths
The Caminos de piedra series responds to the exploration of the vestiges that remain today of some of the bridle paths and royal roads that were of great importance in times of the conquest and colonization of Colombian territory, which emerged in many cases from pre-Hispanic trails.
Paths that marked not only the communications and commerce, if not, the appropriation of the territory and of the natural scenarios for which transited, which with the arrival of "modernity" and the construction of new communication channels were forgotten. (2014 - 2016)

bird watching
Colombia is one of the richest countries in biodiversity, in which around 1,900 species of birds can be observed throughout its territory. Therefore, I have decided to keep a record of those species that I am finding and that I can capture in their natural spaces through different trips in the various regions of the country. (Ongoing project).
twilights
The twilight series is born from the different trips and journeys through the Latin American and European territory where colors, light and shadows will play an important role in the landscapes, through the search and wait for the ideal moment, in where these three factors come together, to generate those fleeting moments, present in the landscapes, from the high mountains to the plains of the OrinoquÃa to the high tides in the sea.
