About Zatarra Rafaël
I Am that I Am
Consciousness adventurer and life-artist,
who loves to shine,
explore and experiment.
Expressing in many artistic ways.
For now mainly through photography and poetry.
Are you open to surprise?
Creative process
The creative process is like an experience,
in which I open up to a landscape
with uncountable possibilities.
Then I follow my heart, vision and wisdom, and choose.
As a photographic artist and poet I allow my creativity to come to me, from within. Ultimately the most marvelous works, come from within.
