Bio
I’m Nuno Canha.
Born and raised in Portugal, lived in many cities.
Accustomed (and glad) to roam the streets, but meaningless until three years ago, when I started carrying a camera. And it all began to make sense.
My intention and only goal is to document the “human existence”, the human context that lies with the image, not the image itself, with no agenda or any other intention than to freeze moments, devoid of context, show how complex is our simplicity and our relationship with our surroundings, our meanings, ambiguities and contradictions.
All this without any preparation or modeling, following the maxim "un-posed, un-staged", only rules in street photography, which is more a method than a genre. You may find boring photos here, but never the lack of spontaneity, creativity or careful observation of the locations, subjects and their relation.
Many were the appliances used in this learning curve, because the camera is just that without the Photographer behind it. And he must be a stealer, a voyeur, an artist and... fearless.
