In 2016, I worked in New York as Art Director in an advertising agency, achieving my American Dream. My roommate Katie was the perfect mix of a smart and a frank person. Not to say no-filter, which I actually love. Subsequently, she always had something new to tell everyday. Later, while discussing, the idea to meet some locals and to listen to their stories was born. At the time, I only had a notebook, a Sharpie and a polaroid camera. Subsequently, I decided to make it as simple as it is. Thus that’s how it started!

Podcasts of Portraits is a serie of podcasts on Soundcloud, recording random people and who crossed my path in New York. Capturing polaroids, their voices and their soul. Furthemore, I would say taht I met the locals as people from all nationalities across the United States of America, thanks to this project as a pretext to easily connect with people. From the saxophonist to the taxi driver, the grocers from my Deli Shop to artists and my coworkers. More than podcasts, this project led me to live unique moments with the locals, sharing several hours and sometimes days together.
