"The world is how you see it", Portugal
May 2015
Things can be so limitlessly simple, and yet the same things can be so limitless complex. Many times, great part of this complexity is in our minds, in the way we see things. Not necessarily in the things themselves.
I see this photo as a metaphor of such ambivalent nature of our minds. A simple water drop seems to contain a whole tiny world inside, inverted and concentrated. Around it, while it lasts, it may only exist by chance, in the tip of a grass leaf. And, all around it, may be secondary, diffused, even as if not present. The world can be, even for a moment, just this simple drop.
