I first visited Mexico in 2007 and since then I have been travelling between Mexico and London, I like the authenticity of downtown and travelling around Mexico, it feels relaxing and like going back in a time machine somehow, theres alot to discover and its good to see the art and culture in both continents. I started to document the sub-culture of the Cholombianos as soon as I saw them in Monterrey, they were amazingly original and had so much energy, Vice from New York arrived after they saw my photos to do their project with Stefan Ruiz. Before Mexico I lived in london and studied Fashion at The Royal College of Art so streetstyle has always been a strong influence in my design concept which lead to projects with Nicola Formachetti for Dazed and Confused magazine in London and Japan. I am currently in Mexico city and working on an exhibition and book project.
