Check out some rapid fire questions we did with Spanish photographer Pablo Mingo. Learn a little more about Pablo and check out a selection of some of his favorite work.

Intercru: Where are you from? Where do you live and work now?

Pablo: I am Spanish, from Madrid, from a small city south of the city called Leganés. I live and work in Madrid.

What’s your favorite food?

I do not have a favorite food but I really love to eat. It’s actually one of my forms of leisure, the only thing I cannot is eat spicy...

What’s your biggest fear?

My greatest fear... that my loved ones suffer.

What would you do if you won the lottery?

I would just enjoy my life, share as much as I could, and travel of course.

What is the best gift you’ve ever been given?

The love and friendship of my friends.

What’s your proudest accomplishment?

To be able to live from photography.

If you could travel back in time, when and where would you go?

I think that I would go back to the ’60s. In general all the arts of that time, but especially music, was incredible. I would love to experience the sensation of seeing Janis Joplin, The Doors, or Jimi Hendrix among others live. Dreams hahaha.

Who knows you the best?

Kike, my brother. We have lived together for 2 and a half years. He is my best friend and the person who knows me best.

In 3 words how would you describe yourself?

It is very difficult to describe oneself without falling into the clichés and without appearing naive. But I would say CAREFUL, HONEST and CREATIVE.

If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you choose?

As an idyllic concept without having to work.... definitely in some paradise near the sea, on the beach, with a good temperature all year round. I don’t know, maybe Bali, Brazil, or Thailand.

Real living, with the responsibilities that it entails, I love Madrid.
