“My photos stem from my imagination: the photo shooting and the post-production are just a part of my creative process. I can feel my idea as totally fulfilled only when I see the printed image.

I have been using the Canson® papers since I started to print in the darkroom. Degas, Picasso and Warhol would use them as well and that has always made me feel special. The versatility of these papers make them suitable for any top-quality photography project.

I always want to be sure that my photos are bright and they can be preserved in the best possible way, without any alteration over the years: that’s why Canson® Infinity’s Baryta Prestige is one of my favourites”.
