What is Vera'Sor ? #visualesdeverasor #verasor My dad's last name is Rivera, so I used Vera which also means truth/ authentic in Italian. My #father was a mechanic, tore his cars apart and rebuilt them, always had the over the top system u can hear blocks away, he raced both cars and motorcycles and has trophies for days, he rode a unicycle, and was a frequent bike rider & used to do the whole dance with the skates lol, he didn't drink or smoke, he coached a basketball team, he played the piano and the guitar and made beats & he always had the music first, huge cd/ disk collection with classics, AND he could rebuild your whole house. Annnddd he Loved taking pictures too, I wish he could see my recent work he would be #proud .no lie I am a #product of his #seed. He was the coolest dad ever and I miss him. When I used to visit Puerto Rico, I was always with him. He, barefoot use to stand at 6'6, April 16 #Aries .He went to heaven at the young age of 49 With no cause of death, just never woke up. At his funeral people told me stories for days and it's always good to know there's someone out there that never limit themselves. That's the first half! Vera represents the love my dad gave me, in hopes of bringing #love #joy and #peace through every image #VERASOR. I strongly believe in generational gifts and I will surpass what he has accomplished!
What is Vera'Sor ? The second half is my moms name (who is very much alive) backwards #Rosa (a'Sor). My mom born in Manhattan, raise in the #BRONX ! My mom is an extraordinary #party & #vacation planner! She sews, and she paint ceramics better than anyone I know. She is God fearing, loving with remarkable #natural #beauty (my role model the reason why I'm still natural in this plastic world) & is only person I know who loves pictures uhhh MORE than me 😂, like her I too have pictures of everyone who don't take pics lol. We can't ever take time back and I will never regret my life because I've learned so much and that is why I think the bond between me and my mom is much stronger now than ever before. However sometimes I wish I slowed down a bit and enjoyed home, because I always had a home to go to in Florida even when I was homeless in NYC. Like her my #independence is strong, matter fact we are #strength n we make shxt happen; create situations and opportunities when to the mans eye there is #none. I love my mom so much and through my images I hope the bond and love brings y'all #peace #love and #happiness. When I shoot I look for a part of me in their eyes, I believe I can capture myself through energy (can't explain). A wise man once said your child has a part of your soul and sometimes when I take pictures I see my mom reflected through my subjects eyes (creepy but deadass) ❤️ and this is why I chose the name Vera'Sor, you Know since everyone always askin "What Does that even mean?!?" ... Well Now u Know it means #EVERYTHING to me ✌️
