‘One Drink Too Many’ is one of the many images of an irreverent but ironic photobook I’m working on, ‘The Quiet Terror Of Being Alive (Or How To Stop Existing Without Dying)’. The protagonist of the story, consumed by the suffocating routine of his daily life, embarks on a psychedelic journey that lands him into a kaleidoscope of colour, where the laws of physics hold no sway and the boundaries of reality are but a distant memory.

Lima, 1963. Autodidact. I began working as a photojournalist in my hometown Lima in Peru, adding to my interest fashion and portraiture once I settled in London in 1985. My images has been published in many magazines including ID, Elle and Vogue, as well as newspapers like The Guardian, The Times and El País. I have covered different topics, from celebrity portraiture to the Kosovo War in 1999. I’m currently engaged in Fine Arts and Documentary projects.
