Correspondence passes through fluent and stagnant moments, at times immediate, at times slow, protracted communications. Without losing its playful nature, it moves through difficult moments. There is doubt, provocation, spontaneity. There is surprise, pleasure, frustration. If the author frees himself from the weight of being the main reference in his own creative self and attempts a shared visual construction, photography and the creation of images become similar to musical interpretation. The result is a duet of images without a musical score, an improvisation; a visual composition, a subjective narrative which is open to interpretation.
