Felipe Schiffrin is a Chilean visual artist. After studying Audiovisual Communication with a focus on Film at UNIACC, he developed a career as a cinematographer and editorial photographer. This deep immersion in the construction of the contemporary image has evolved into a more personal and exploratory practice, where his cinematic sensibility now converges in artistic photography and abstract painting.

During seventeen years based in Mexico, he developed a distinctive visual language that expanded across diverse creative territories and geographies. His work has been deeply shaped by a close relationship with natural environments, drawing from experiences in the Amazon rainforest, the Petén jungle, and various regions of Africa. This trajectory has shaped a perspective in which technical precision and sensitivity converge, reflecting a sustained engagement with landscape and the human experience.

Upon returning to Chile, he developed the photographic project The Origin, created in solitude in Patagonia. Conceived as a silent retreat in direct contact with nature, the project emerges from a need to return to the essential and to reconnect with a sense of belonging to the natural world. Through journeys across remote territories, his black and white images stand as a testament to this search: a contemplative approach to landscape where scale, stillness, and harmony invite a renewed connection with the environment.

In recent years, his practice has turned toward painting as a space for exploration, where memory and time intertwine and perception is continuously constructed and transformed. Working through an abstract, monochromatic language, his pieces unfold through layered gestures and surfaces that evoke fragments of memory and traces of wear.

He currently lives and works in Santiago, Chile.
