"I always work with images 'stolen' from everyday moments," says Miami-based photographer Malena Assing. "I take
the camera and the unknown is the main character. This photograph is called Infi nite, because it has no end. It is like a poetic sight of the universe with no ending.
" "For me my photography is a way to present my realities," says the ABN Top 50 Emerging Artist. "We all see the world
with different eyes; we experience the world in different ways, because of our own background or because of our own singular experiences. I defi ne myself as a positive soul living in a world where many people describe it as tragic. I envision the world from another perspective. I see light behind every shadow. I want to give the world some vibrancy of the life we live in through the intensity of the colors.
