Cinematography is not only my career of choice: It is my passion. I was raised in a family dedicated to the visual arts. From my father's work as an architect in Mexico, I share a true devotion to light and space in relation to the experience of living. Watching my mother painting for hours in her studio always made me curious of her ways of exploring the mystery of emotion in a canvas through color and shape. Both of them inspired me, and revealed to me that exploring emotions through art is not only part of our lifestyle, it is our way to experience life. -tvr.
