A current ongoing series.

For the past two years, I have lived in and out of Cuba continuously shooting in an attempt to digest the absurd and complex beauty around me.

“Cuba, la hora de la isla” (Island Time) is a poetic and diaristic examination of the concept of time on the island. Counting, stretching, standing still — time seems to bend and break crashing and overlapping onto itself that keeps me in a loop of mesmerized daze. Shooting mostly on film, a nod to the country’s own isolation and fragility, Cuba is a world that begins and ends with the ocean, filled with a generation that yearns to be a part of the greater conversation. I am attempting to capture a different side of the island far from the tourists and politics, instead focusing on this mass of floating land that provides limitless time to play.
