As an inhabitant of several worlds, I have found in photography a connection, a gateway, a leap into urban visual poetry. My photos are the result of random walks, camera or cell phone in hand. They scan, in the streets of Buenos Aires, New York, and other large cities, that which usually remains hidden to the average passerby: the presence of repetitions, seriality, and multiplicities, straight and curved lines, all kinds of rarely regular geometric shapes, symbols, equality, variation, patterns, and infinity. This mathematizing perspective goes hand in hand with another one that, appealing to sociology, directs my gaze to mundane scenes and things that bear witness to the myriad of daily human activities in the big city. It is, thus, that many times the streets give us back their multiplied reflections, sometimes funny, sometimes monumental, as in his remarkable urban graffiti, sometimes monstrous and threatening, like the image of policemen pointing their guns at us, sometimes nostalgic and rainy, images that we build behind frosted glass.
