Ricardo Báez Duarte: a painter? a Photographer?
An image-maker!

Perhaps some sort of a “painter” with a camera, computer and digital software to produce expressive and unique fine art prints.

My artistic aspiration is not to get a photograph but rather an image. The challenge is simple and yet difficult,

“… to go beyond the anecdotal and the technical reproduction of the physical appearance, i.e. to elude the pure reproducibility of a pure event” (Roland Barthes).
