The essential of my work is focused on finding the essential moments in everyday life. I go outside
with my video camera to find the unexpected and, at the same time, manipulate the reality. First, I
make in-camera editing, where the first shot leads to another default but unexpected. After, in editing
room can all have a new meaning. Therefore, the purpose of the process is to make the everyday life
an art object that speaks for itself.
The historic memory, how the people tell the History and focus their perception of the world looking
through the past the present. The memory like a ghost that inhabit our lives but we cant or dont want
to see. My last experimental documentaries had the central point of the narration in this, and how
take form visually this idea. Im worried about how the concepts needs to take the ideal audiovisual
form for express their meaning. Every movie is different and needs it own style.
Work with the landscape, the objects in it, their history, and the forms it can appear are my principal
audiovisual style. I treat the landscape like the principal character of my films. The urban and natural landscape, and their combination, can be expressed by itself. At that point, my work demand
the attention and the patience of the public, because is about time. And time needs time to develop.
Search the essential moments in everyday life, or, talk about the historic memory is question of time,
and the landscape is the sign of the time.
Play with the landscape forms and the essential moments in the reality develops other kind of works
focused in the abstraction of the image through shapes, colors, rhythms, and sounds turning it into a
sensory experience so that the image is purely plastic.
My approach to the contemporary art, and the meeting with artists, has led me to create a line of
work about the art spaces and representations. My first documentary, (De)constructing the space
(2011) deepens in how change a installation space. My documentary glogau AIR (2014), goes beyond and combines the GlogauAIR residence as a life space with the artists development. Since
then all these workpaths are mixed in my lasts films.

Vallcarca (Sitges) was built in 1903 to house workers of concrete factory MC Butsems and Fradera.
In the 50s and 60s the company grew, and with it
the colony, which grew into a town of five thousand
inhabitants. The political and economic changes of
the 70s led to the need for expansion of the concrete factory and the destruction of that village. Today, the only remaining street in Vallcarca is populated by the ghosts of the past and his experiences
are only in the memory of those who inhabited the
place.
