I began to develop the Coincidence Project almost five years ago in the form of a 365 day diary.

Living in a society bombarded by information and images, the surroundings noun noticed in front of our eyes and seem banal.Through the photograph of "coincidences" I have been able to observe and show that the reality around still retains its mystery, its artistic magic.

The art of the coincidences that I gather in my images consists in the creation of a new space, free of duality,where we can escape and recreate ourselves, renouncing the condemnation of everyday reality.

The Coincidence Project is my tool to break the wheel of duality. The images do not show beautiful, flashy or glorious scenes, but special places where the opposites meet to unite their differences. So at the moment when the Unit begins to shine the judgments disappear. Where there are two, there seems to be three, and where there seems to be three is actually only One.

Thanks to my project I have been able to demonstrate that it is possible to observe reality without breaking it up into other sub realities. It is possible to detect the underlying unity of the Whole through the juxtapositions of the elements that surround us daily.
