For over 3,000 Km I photographed a territory synonymous with fantasy, from Las Vegas in Nevada to Yosemite in California, passing by the Grand Canyon in Arizona. There is also the valley of death, this desert with the salty air and Mother Lode, mythical road of the gold diggers in the mid 1800s. I could see the importance of the legacy of the pioneers in this region of the United States, which is still present despite the decades. Between landscapes and portraits, between desert and mountain, I stopped the time of a wonder, of a conversation, the time of a photography.
