Riachuelo Bridges

In monochrome shadows and steel patterns, the bridges over the Riachuelo emerge as visual verses. Their arches, silent guardians of time’s passage, evoke history and resilience. Axel unveils them 1 in black and white, where form prevails and the poetic of crossing resonates in every line and reflection of light.

Machu Picchu

Between the mist and the mountain, the stones speak in silence. Walls that withstand time guard enigmas no one has ever deciphered. There, where the earth touches the sky, every crack holds a secret. Machu Picchu cannot be explained; it can only be contemplated.

India

Land of millennial contrasts, India unfolds in faces, marbles, and rituals. Under the Taj Mahal’s dome or amidst the bustle of the streets, Axel captures gazes that speak, gestures laden with history, and suspended moments in time. Each image is a bridge between cultures, a glimpse of humanity beyond measure.
