My travels through South America took me to Peru, Bolivia, Colombia, Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, and Chile. Each place offered something unique—landscapes shaped by history, memory, and everyday life. Some places were deeply personal: Bolivia, where my son once lived; Peru, where my sister worked in the Andes. Those connections gave my time there a different kind of depth.

In Colombia, I taught a workshop at the Centro Colombo Americano—an experience that still stands out. The openness of the students and the exchange of stories reminded me that photography is as much about listening as it is about seeing.

From the quiet of rural Brazil to the vast stillness of Patagonia, and the rhythms of Argentina, I was drawn into moments that carried weight—small, quiet scenes that spoke of presence, resilience, and a different sense of time.
