"If I had to describe myself I would say that I'm an historian and an archivist: of sounds, of images, of smiles and of simple news stories that, in the end, are the ones that write our History, our everyday history."
I was born in Montevideo, Uruguay. At the moment I'm living in Italy where I study History at "Rome III" University.
Buenos Aires, Roma, Berlino, Amsterdam have been my schools.
Photography, video and radio have accompanied me at various stages of my life in a personal development toward a deeper meaning of news. In search of my own reality and the world's through the use of media that allow me to register and even freeze time: photos, video and radio. But always with close attention to social issues: from protests to the historical analyses of social movements. This search has taken me to study history, to have a better repertoire of understanding of what I see, hear, and question, all for which I use technical and theoretic instruments that lead me to oral history. Tell history, my history, and the history of those I find.
Lately, it's radio that seduces me, probably because it gives me the chance to tell the story with more voices, leaving more to the imagination of the listener.
