Abstract/Artist Statement
As a foreigner studying in the U.S., I often find myself with the opportunity to travel at an international level. Traveling is a very active aspect of my life, either for pleasure or for necessity, I fly around the globe an average of ten times a year. Whenever I have the opportunity to jump on a plane, I love to visit new countries and learn about their culture and traditions. From a young age I was introduced to art and immediately took interest in studying art history, which later developed my fascination for finding the monuments and buildings that I had been reading about in school books. Because traveling and photography go hand in hand, I have always had an inclination for photography so as any artist, I do not go anywhere without my camera. As I grew older and started to explore the globe by myself or with friends, I always took it as my mission to capture every little detail of my discoveries so I could later show my mother, who is my biggest supporter for anything I do and a huge influence on my love for art. Something that almost always grabs my attention when traveling are the colors. It fascinates me to walk around a new European city and find all its hidden colors in architecture and nature alike. That is why I chose to compile some of my most colorful images into a booklet. I found it to be an underlying common denominator in most of my photographs and thought it was about time they saw the light.
