A Room with a view, entitles a series of images made in hotel rooms of different cities and continents. The photographs are shoot from the hotel room window to the city. The photography process is analogic with no digital manipulation or photoshop effects. Each picture is the result of a complex, unique and “realistic” composition. These specific points of view have several layers of information: the urban landscape fusions with the reflection on the interior, creating images that mix and condense personal objects, memories, afections and a possible narrative.

The series A Room with a view, explores the individual experiences, intimate and private with the global contemporary metropolis and it’s a reflection into the complex, spatial conditions and dynamics of some cities spread across the globe.

I love cut off heads.

I wouldn’t mind staying in any one of these hotels. I’ve seen the very nicest to the most terrible, and windows play a big part! One enjoys one’s stay at a place of lodging through the windows it’s got up on the walls. Inasmuch as it’s a window, it’s a mirror!
