ISAIAS MICIU
Born in Montevideo, Uruguay, in 1985. He spent his early years in Cordoba, and had lived in San Martin for ten years, where he grew his passion for fly fishing. After taking some classes in photography, he apprenticed in the world of digital photography with Theo Ribeiro (Brazil). Next, he collaborated with his brother Eliseo on a book project for National Geographic Traveler. He also worked as an assistant to Marcos Furer (renowned photographer and friend) on projects for ad campaigns in Europe. He traveled throughout Argentina, Europe, Russia, the Caribbean Islands, the United States, Africa, but he always returned to Patagonia. I specialize in sports photography, specifically fly fishing and hunting, and he makes customized photography books from traveling to the world’s exotic destinations. When asked if he consider himself a photographer, he must answer that he is not sure. He wonders, what does it mean to be a photographer today? If the end goal is to transmit emotions, dreams, a sense of utopia ... then, perhaps he is. He considers himself a seeker of moments, who watches everyday situations in which man interacts with nature, out in the open air. To capture and record a moment it is necessary for the observer to become part of the medium, but without intervening. I do not think a person can interact in a situation without changing it somehow. To capture a moment that transmits an emotion, a photographer has to live it in the first person. A person must identify with an emotion in order to appreciate it. That is why I am dedicated to pursuing moments that leave bare the magnificence of Creation.
