The photographs I present in the subsection Routes can be seen as an archive of my glances while travelling in different parts of the world. I have travelled with my camera for different reasons, from academic workshops to journalistic photo-reportages, or simply because I have set out on a journey in order to know about the world, as when I travelled from Scotland to Japan through the steppes of Kazakhstan and Mongolia. Through my trips or my long journeys I have tried to get new perspectives on things, to learn and unlearn. A common thread that connects all of these images is a great interest in the plurality of human values and ways of thinking and knowing.
