The landscape has been elaborated, the space has been intervened by various political, geographical, and social constructions and even by my imagination. However, nature is capable of assimilating spaces, between built materials and the primordial ecosystem; various layers of elements and time are created, nature becomes, tries to return, and reappropriates the place from these various mantles that have been created.
I make montages from magazine images, landscapes intervened by constructions, and the human body. In the main image there are already different layers of time, layers of intervention in constructions, and from the material of the magazines I create new layers of elements and time.
