Zurich

My decision to visit Zurich dates back to July 2007 when I worked in the Canadian province of Yukon and met an adventurous mind, who described Zurich as one of the world's best city as far as the quality of life is concerned.
Last October I spent a week in the city of famous Cabaret Voltaire, founded in 1916, by Hugo Ball, Emmy Hennings and other artists and where events proved essential in the founding of the anarchic art movement known as Dada.
Everyday, I spent hours walking down the streets with my cameras, shooting without any limitation, challenging the rules of photography, experimenting, looking around with the curiosity of a child's eyes. Creativity has to be fun! As French painter Henri Matisse stated: "The artist has to look at life as he did when he was a child and if he loses that faculty, he cannot express himself in an original and personal way."
