Art in the Caf� Artist Statement - Elodie Saracco I'm a French woman, climber, photographer, traveler who fell in love with Kentucky 6 years ago and decided to come and live here, rock climb, and shoot photos. My camera on my side, I keep traveling around the world and exploring this beautiful planet. I want to experiment, experience; I want to look at more, see beyond; get out of my comfort zone; learn and grow from other sceneries, cultures, mentalities. Photography is my way to express myself, communicate, and get connected with others. Eyes wide open, I'm trying to seize and capture the instant and share a vision - my vision - with you. You can see more of my work here. Do not hesitate to contact me for more information, request or feedback ... I'd love to hear from you! Elodie Saracco elodie.saracco@yahoo.fr 859-489-8563
