ENTRY DESCRIPTION
The subtlety, precision, desire, eroticism, sensuality, these photographic plans are part of the composition of the Leticia Zica´s work, a young artist from Sao Paulo, Brazil, which undertook to capture a feeling that part of her body and that mingles with the living spaces, inhabited and experienced by her. Get in her photographic world is entering a totally erotic and subtle world, is to ask the body in a different and confidentially, that to meet the skin becomes conductive bond of sensuality caused by the mind, in charge of instincts they are reminded by what is seen or not seen. The participation of São Paulo artist in ABRAHADABRA exhibition held in Bogota, at the Contemporary Art Museum of Bogotá, includes the perception of the body and divisible space. Search feel the places we live in different ways and in this way become sensory states, materials and astral, seeking a reality in which we cling to sentimental and nostalgic way. This reality becomes memories and energies that determine the fate of each person. Her work becomes naturally in evocations of receiver where the captured images leave a significant mark. The dress relates to the concept, the surrounding reality and its phenomena (physical and metaphysical) that are appropriated by artists, so that the physical matter that makes up his works are loaded, serving as a living memory, fetish, ritual, work total art or complex image that is activated by those who really want to try and make contact, to the extent that we ask ourselves this load concept, and the way in which the artist operates, we reach deeper into the surface that is hidden, discovering its power animist.

AUTHOR
Leticia Zica grew up in the city of Belo Horizonte ,state of Minas Gerais, Brazil , and currently lives and work in São Paulo. At age 21, her photographic work consists of self-portraits , and part of the tireless exercise, and perhaps endless , to express the ineffable sense of the reality of her country, of the people who cross her path and, of cours, of herself.
The textile is present not only in her photographs, but also the work done as a fashion student, and shows a necessary tool for the composition of her paths. By means of wires, and cloths and possibilities of this constant meeting where you can cover and uncover, winding and unwinding, the folly of being is embodied.
