About the collections

When Oscar starts working on a new photo collection is initially inspired by emotions and life events. Each series prompted a reaction to various solutions to those life events. "What inspires me may elicit something special to each one of my collectors". In time, Oscar has learned that my ultimate goal is to create art that relaxes and calms my collectors and in the end, makes them think. This all encompasses something an old friend told Oscar a long time ago, “We buy art to feed our souls”.
