Eyes Talk VII - Limited Edition of 10 Photograph

I was born in San José, Costa Rica I am an electromechanical engineer, married and a mother of three. In 2015, I began my studies in photography and realized that this is my true passion. Little by little, I left my former job to devote myself completely to photography. Now I am a fine art photographer who uses photoshop to create the emotions I feel inside and want to share. In my work, everything starts in my head and my heart. Any moment or thing can be a source of inspiration for my creative process. Once I have the idea inside of me, I start to draw a picture, write about the idea and what I'm going to need. Sometimes I don't need anything more than an old dress and a cloth; other times a path, a tree. It all depends on what I imagined. Then comes the image take; I usually take several shots, and with these, my editing work begins. In editing, I give shape and color to my image, just as I had designed it. It is wonderful how little by little the image in my head comes true, and I can see with my eyes what I had seen with my soul. Most of my images are self-portraits because I want my body move as my mind imagine the subject. A lot of my work was born from the sensitivity I developed during my father´s disease. He was in a coma for 7 years -at this time I realized life is short and you never know when our journey will end. So I decided follow my dreams and trasmit all my feeling throught art. I love my decision now I just need the opportunity to show my art to the world. ¨Art helps us to personify what we envision, grasp the imaginary and transmit our thoughts.¨ -Gabriela Segura
