Several years ago I had a dream and in this dream there was an island called cocube. I don't know anything more about cocube, only that I felt very well being detached from everything material or immaterial. That dream with an island with unknown name in an unknown place has been one of the best thing I have ever experienced in my whole life.
I think the only way to see things clearly is to gain distance from them. Photography is an extraordinary way to do that. Still images allow you to understand entire periods of your life, moreover to understand how things are going on.

"Cocube's photos are very unique. The ultimate observer. I really like that. If I hold my breath and watch the world pass, sometimes there's moments like this. Cocube collects these moments in such wonderful photos."

"Cocube's photos are the images stolen from a dream. From his polariods of to his landscapes, each image evokes scents that you can smell, textures you can touch, sounds that you can hear and emotions that you can feel. These photos are magic - pure and simple."
