STATEMENT
CAT
Només a través de la pròpia quotidianitat podem entendre les quotidianitats del nostre entorn. Quan decidim deixar-nos travessar per aquestes és quan podem començar a explicar-les, o almenys intentar-ho, de manera sincera i honesta.
La fotografia m’és amiga, companya, refugi. Amb càmera o sense miro, sempre miro, però només a vegades veig. Faig fotos amb l’estómac i la pell de gallina, alerta i conscient, des d’una calma sostinguda que em fa vibrar. Entenc la fotografia com una manera de viure, escoltar i relacionar-se amb l’entorn.
Conèixer persones i les seves realitats és un tresor, acostar-t’hi, intentar entendre-les, teixir-hi vincles de confiança de manera honesta… Per això em són imprescindibles els moments de pausa i fotosíntesi per pair i parir la història.

Hago fotos con el estómago y la carne de gallina, alerta y consciente, desde una calma sostenida que me hace vibrar. Entiendo la fotografía como una manera de vivir, escuchar y relacionarse con el entorno.
Conocer personas y sus realidades es un tesoro, acercarse, intentar entenderlas, tejer vínculos de confianza de forma honesta… Por eso son imprescindibles los momentos de pausa y fotosíntesis para digerir y parir la historia.
ENG
It is only through our own everyday life that we can understand the everyday life around us. It is when we decide to let ourselves be traversed by these that we can begin to explain them, or at least try to do so, in an honest and sincere way.
Photography is my friend, my companion, my refuge. With or without a camera I look, I always look, but only sometimes I see. I take pictures with my stomach, alert and aware, from a sharp calm that makes me vibrate. I understand photography as a way of living, listening and relating to the environment.
Getting to know people and their realities is a treasure, getting close, trying to understand them, weaving bonds of trust... That's why moments of pause and photosynthesis are essential to digest and give birth to every story.
