Revisiting the self-portraits of men and women that punctuate the history of photography, I put myself in front of the camera incorporating their poses, mimicking their facial expressions, copying their composition and reproducing their light.

These self-portraits echo those of the great names in photography. They resonate in time and space, materializing randomly over time.

It's a long-term project that aims to bear witness to the wealth of self-portraits made by photographers, and provides a fragmented portrait of the history of photography.
