Ella (She)

I started taking pictures of Eli when she was 10 years old. I came back in Madrid in 2015 and for two weeks I have lived in close contact with Eli. We developed a strong and sincere bond, also with her family, based on the awareness of our common battle for the right of being yourself.

Polarity

2016

Androgyny scares, baffles and fascinates at the same time. Androgynous people live between the polarities of a binary society: visually they fit neither the female nor male stereotype. Their dual natures coexist in each world like cross-faded images contained in one frame. Separating them into two classic genders makes this polarity visible and present while mirroring back the viewer's norms and stereotypes.

Rites
