Documentary photography has been her source of inspiration and personal development. ‘’Every time I travel I feel that the streets hide something and I feel the need to succumb to their customs and their culture, that is why my photographs bring out my more human side, and I find myself interested in how different spaces that surround us influence our moments of privacy and loneliness, that loss and loneliness that lives with us, despite the seemingly crowded world before our eyes’’.
She has participated in different collective exhibitions in Spain, however among his artistic achievements she stands out for exhibiting his photographs internationally in the ‘’Monaco Art Fair’’ 2021 collaborating with Monat Gallery.
More of her work may be found on her IG account, her webpage, and on the IG account associated with this magazine.
