1 min read

Photography has been always present in the life of Alfonso. Since childhood he was fascinated by shapes, compositions and colors. Having grown up in the Haute Couture Atelier of his mother in Venezuela, it made him appreciate aesthetics and the search for precision. After finishing his Electrical Engineering studies, he emigrated to Europe. Self-taught, in a purely intuitive way, he began to passively explore the photographic world, and this led him to make the decision to start artistic studies at the School of Fine Arts of Brugge, Belgium. His work make focus in documentary and sense of place. His depicted universe tends to be solitary, disturbing, nostalgic and poetic, using different mediums such as analog – digital photography, experimental and collages.
