I'm a photographer based in Belgium. After a short essay in cinematography in1996 at INRACI in Brussels, photography became my way of expression. Desiring to achieve what I did not finish at the technical education level, I started evening classes in 2010 and graduated in photography at the Agnes Varda School of Photography in 2015.

My favorite photographic subject is a forgotten but not hidden world. A world where the essence of our humanity is narrated in silence. Since a while I try to embrace the silence and capture the tenderness of deterioration. I wander in search of faces and places, beauty and decay, anticipated and unexpected scenes.

My approach speaks about the themes of abandonment, emptiness and timeless.
