New York: Kathy Cacicedo

“The work featured in this Spotlight is from a recent adventure in Iceland.  Up before dawn, chasing sunrises, driving hours to spend sunset at a beautiful spot where no rain was predicted. An amazing trip spent sleeping in our boots in a pop up tent on the roof of a campervan, and eating PB&J sandwiches because we were too busy exploring to stop and eat lamb and langoustines.

If you have a chance to go to Iceland, go.

Go fast.

Go soon.

It already can barely handle the amount of tourists visiting so your clock is ticking.

Get there.

I promise you, when you find yourself alone, laying on the ground, looking up at the Northern lights dancing above, you will connect with the heavens and it will be a life changing experience.”

For the last two years, he has been travelling through the Ukraine, Azerbaijan, and Russia working on personal photo projects.

"This portfolio represents my personal work, it’s about the people I’ve met on my travels by chance. When I started my trip I never thought about what I would like to capture. I just let it happen. Drifting like this, I felt lucky about every coincidence and new experience. When I first started my travels, I shot in black and white film, carrying around countless film rolls. Since then, I have switched to a digital camera taking pictures mainly in colour. The fact that it’s taken six years to get where I am now and the fact that I have seen so little does not matter to me. Things take time."
