"I was born curious and, forced into patience by my parents, I became fairly observant. In a day gone by, I grabbed a camera. Now I suspect that every photograph I have made is a piece of a colossal puzzle that I expect to complete in no immediate future. That is why I take photography so seriously; to portray with a sense of humor the paradigms that the human condition presents. Just like his jocular ocular tenor hates overblown speaking, Rodrigo declares himself a fan of irony and a solemn adversary of speaking in the third person."
