Extra information:

I grew up in Uruguay and later settled in the UK where I studied Documentary Photography at Newport Art College, and have since travelled round the world for the international media and have also worked as still photographer, consultant and researcher for film and TV companies .

Also have produced audiovisual material and touring displays for Non Governmental Organizations like War on Want, Save The Children, OXFAM, Christian Aid, CAFOD, VSO, UNICEF, the British Council and the European Union.

After being awarded a World Press Photo First Prize in the Environment category, I produced 'The Four Elements', a touring exhibition on ecological issues, sponsored by the European Union.
My long term project on children’s play around the world, 'Toys' has been published by Mets & Schilt of Amsterdam in Dutch, German and English. It is distributed by Pluto Books in the UK and the USA. 

My latest book: 'Imagining Orwell in Three Continents', following the steps of George Orwell through some of his writings, was published by Just Press in November 2020.
I am represented by the Panos Pictures agency in the UK.
