We are animals, born from the land with the other species. Since we've been living in cities, we've become more and more stupid, not smarter. What made us survive all these hundreds of thousands of years is our spirituality; the link to our land.

What I want is to create a discussion about what is happening around the world and to provoke some debate with these pictures. Nothing more than this.

More than ever, I feel that the human race is one. There are differences of colour, language, culture and opportunities, but people's feelings and reactions are alike. People flee wars to escape death, they migrate to improve their fortunes, they build new lives in foreign lands, they adapt to extreme hardship….

My way of photographing is my way of life. I photograph from my experience, my way of seeing things.

It's more important for a photographer to have very good shoes, than to have a very good camera

I am a former economist. I never went to photography school to learn photography.

You photograph with all your ideology.
