Spaniard, born 1955 in Tétouan (Morocco),
he spent his first years of his infancy roaming
the colourful market-stands in this town, taking
in the smells of all those exotic spices available
here in this extraordinary country. Later, in 1962,
at the age of seven years his family moved to the
Canary Islands, settling down in Tenerife, presently
still residing there.
Having finished High School he took up studying
fine arts and technical architec- ture, discovering
soon, that with the help of photography, he had
found the perfect way to develop his passion for
artistic imagery. Since then in his professional
career he always had been anxious to express his
interests and views on his surroundings with the
help of images taken with his cameras.
He started his career as a professional photographer
working for local newspapers on Tenerife, where
he worked as editor using his photographs to illustrate
his own articles, most of them related to the show
business and motoring, not forgetting his great
passion, documenting ways of human live and various
basic activities of humans, such as farming, fishing,
manual skills, etc.
In 1981 he made his first contacts with the world
of aeronautics as a pupil in the "Aero Club
de Tenerife", and in 1984, when starting as
a professional photographer he realised he could
combine his job with his hobby, so he then spent
many hours in planes, and later on also in helicopters,
building up a great experience in this line of imagery.
He further on took up travelling as a romantic adventurer
and undertook various ex- peditions to Africa, Asia,
South America and Europe as a photographer and also
filming with video cameras. The images he obtained
on these trips where to be the foundations for his
own photographic archive, and since 1989 he illustrates
his stories and tales of his experiences with the
help of these photos in national magazines like:
"Auto Aventura 4x4". "Viajar",
"Solo Moto", "Antena Semanal",
"National Geographic" and other local
magazines, such as: "Islas", "Guajara",
"Canarias Motor" and "Motor 2000".
As a travelling photographer he also documented
his researches on Berber pottery for the Tenerife
Museum on Nature and Humans and some of his photos
from Africa and South America are exhibited in the
showrooms of this museum.
He also contributed to medical and humanitarian
expeditions to the Philippines and India.
Right from the beginning of his career as a photographer
his essays and articles, as well as his photos have
been included in textbooks on educational subjects
of various types, and press agencies obtain images
from his archives. At present he is working in documenting
and illustrating various books about the culture
and the geography of the Canary Islands for local
editorials and also on some of his own projects.
To get into contact with wider artistic circles
he also performed exhibitions of his photographs
in important local art galleries, such as the "Galeria
Canaria de Arte", "Cactus" and "Parque
Cultural Viera y Clavijo".
Further on he involved himself completely in projects
undertaken by the "Centro de Fotografia - Isla
de Tenerife", participating in all their editions
of "FOTONOVIEM- BRE - International Biennial
of Photography".
In the year 2006 his images of aerial photographs
have been exposed at the Inter- national Centre
in the town of San Antonio, Texas.
The latest technologies in imaging and communications
invite him to explore new ways to present his works
on the "web" and to contact internationally
well known firms and to collaborate with important
personalities in politics, culture and of arts. |
