A Cuban Experience

In 2019, I traveled to Cuba to experience the culture firsthand, drawn by my long-standing fascination with the people and their way of life. During my time there, I met a man named Sylvio, who welcomed me into his world and shared an intimate view of his daily life as a Cuban. I captured his story on film, later developing and printing the photographs in the darkroom. Through our conversations and the images I created, I witnessed the resilience, warmth, and complexity of his life. His openness left a lasting impression on me, and this work is a reflection of that moving experience.
