ABOUT ME

Born in Montevideo, Uruguay in 1971, Marcelo lived in

Madrid and Grenoble before his family settled in Montreal,

Canada. Now, he spends his time between Montréal and

Mérida, Yucatan in Mexico where he has his own

photography sanctuary.

Two years ago, in 2017, a cerebral vasculitis brutally hit

Marcelo. After a long hospitalization, many treatment

attempts and long convalescence, he had to mourn his

professional career.

​

WHAT I'VE DONE

After completing his photographic degree at C.E.G.E.P. du

Vieux Montréal, he was recruited by one of the best black

and white photographic laboratory, where he developed a

great interest for black and white photography and the lab

technics. His creativity and talent led him to explore

advertising and editorial photography, transiting from film

to digital photography, but without never losing his passion

for lab and black and white photography.

WHAT I DO

He takes care of his health now! After a few health issues, he stopped commercial photography and does some photography for him self as a health-therapy calling it healthGraphy!... He does Wetplate, Cyanotype and Photogravure which challenges his mind and keeps him occupied and functional. .
