Discovering Everyday Beauty on the Chilean coast with @tichamercado

(This interview was conducted in Spanish.)

“I love to walk and explore the city on foot. I like to get close to things and absorb places as if I was a tourist, with a blank mind,” says Patricia Mercado (@tichamercado), a Chilean filmmaker. “I find beauty every day. It could be in a simple cup of tea or in a magnificent architectural work.”

Originally from the capital Santiago, Patricia just accomplished one of her dreams of moving to Viña del Mar, on the Chilean coast. “I love this city, its weather (clouds, fog, soft light), its people, living next to the ocean, the smell of the sea, the immensity,” she says. “Walking through its hills, with its dreamy houses, graffiti and murals, is getting lost in another world. Every day I am enchanted by something new.”

Patricia also revels in discovering new things about herself through her pictures. “My premise is to enjoy life, to live amazed like a child. I’d very much would like to transmit that to others.”
