His practice takes anthropology, archeology and criminology as a main references of phenomenology to create lines of investigation baed on reconsctructions, timelines, interpretations, uncertain materialities, imprecise descriptions or ambiguities

His latest investigations are based on the idea of ‘karaoke’, (or working with absence of information), to create new bodies of work within those missing parts, images or explanations. Perform a line of complicity with the viewer, who builds interpretations or reconstructions out of this pieces, as tourists, archeologist, or simple karaoke singers in a bar.

Mainly is an investigation focused on the representation and the narrative of the ‘invisible’ that defines the space. A work not so directly related with the gravity and weight, a value which has been a main unit to measure construction and its media impact on the last decades.
