I am Mica
"People inspire me, how they speak, what they think, how they move, their truths, what they hide. I owe my creativity to every person I know, ideas come with them.
I am a small part of something big and I understand that ideas are collective, but most of the time that thought limits me, it creates a feeling that takes me deep inside to find what my imagination is showing me.
I enjoy meeting and connecting with all kind of people,
if I can take a picture and represent them with an image, I feel that I can touch the sky, for me that is a prize,
I feel honored.
My existentialism seems to grow with me, so I decided to carry it with pride and put a smile on my face, keep my mind and body occupied with more superficial concerns and take as many good photos as I can while I'm alive.
It's hard for me to stay still and sometimes, to concentrate it seems impossible, but I like working hard with myself, time is making me a better human being and photographer.
Once I heard that "fear is a powerful thing and because
it has many firepowers, we should make fear a tailwind and not a headwind", I liked that thought, so I turned it into my mantra.
I am never completely satisfied and I hope I'll never be."
