I use photography to question how images are used to construct notions of time, space, origin, and history. To do so, I develop visual methodologies to explore how these constructions are shaped by imagination, power, and desire. My practice is grounded in the context of a deep ecological and human values crisis, which calls for the active imagining of other possible ways of relating to the planet, to reality, and to others — also non-humans; with the help of native South American traditional knowledges.
I approach image-making to imagine ways of questioning and resisting dominant powers and imposed narratives. This is why, in recent years, I have focused my work on experimental photography and the relationship between private archives and astronomical scientific imagery.
I combine photographic practice with critical research to examine the political implications of space imagery and its entanglement with usually restrictive notions of time and neocolonial agendas.
