About Me
Monty is a nomadic photographer from Buenos Aires, Argentina.
He uses photography as a tool to question our perception about reality. With his camera, he explores intersubjective spaces, that are shaped from the relationship between our subjective experiences and the objective nature of the universe.
Monty has exhibited work across the globe in USA, London, Germany and Argentina.
His project “The Measure” was recently selected to be part of the FOLIO masterclass with PHMuseum and Witty Books.
His work has appeared on numerous publications, including It’s Nice That, PH Room and i-D.
