Today on the podcast we welcome, Fares Micue, a Spanish self-taught fine art/conceptual photographer.

Fares started photography back in 2009 after she discovered the photography site Flickr.

At first, she treated her exploration of photography as a way to have nice pictures to share in her profile without putting much thought into the photography process.

Six 6 years later, she realized that photography was the perfect medium to share her thoughts, ideas, and perception of reality with others.

From that moment on, she took a different approach to the way she created her images. She put extra attention to all the key elements ——location, colors, props, feeling, story, and meaning, to create a final image that alignment with her original vision.

Micue shares, "As a self-portrait artist, I use the observation of my surroundings, human interactions, and my own feelings to create beautiful conceptual images. My work is full of symbolism, every element in my compositions has a purpose, from the colors to the props to the body language, and the combination of all these elements creates the final conceptual image."

Fares continues, "I am a highly positive person and this positivity often reflects on my work delivering images with a.  strong message on personal growth, reflection, self-worth, and overcoming obstacles. The key elements of my art are simple backgrounds, saturated colors and strong conceptual theme loaded with an aesthetic charm. I want my work to be viewed as a whole story condensed in one frame.”

Fares loves books by  Agatha Christie.
