    "I like so many others who have been fortunate to see Sati's stream have been captivated by this womans "magic" in all she presents in her creative pursuits.Wether it be a picture of her dog, the white rabbit who is the star of her stories, portraits of friends or self, her artistic expressions by various mediums, her light and darkness, it's more than one can imagine but well to savour.
    If variety is the spice of life, then it's very spicy here. And like a good meal that feeds me well...........her images/visions are a feast for the senses, a banquet of delight. Eat well my friends and be as SATI-sfied as I AM."

    "Honestly I believe that I am not qualified to give a testimonial to Sati; compared to her I am just a beginer...but affter following Sati's work for several months, I have not been able to refrain from writing a few words. I apreciate Sati's work enormously and today, sort of lost in an airport ,I could find some time to try to put some words together for her.
    I know very little from Sati other that her pictures; I do not know what she does besides fotography. But I find her extremly talented as a fotrographer . I am sure her technique is at hight level, but I am not hight enough to judge it. But all her work is extremly creative, full of fanstasy and sensitivity, such that goes beyond the picture itself into the field of fantastic creation with a full, obvious and great message behing the picture itself. Extremly beautiful and atractive.
    I have bought recently her Cuentos-Tales book. I is supperb: a series of extremly simple and naif stories give support to to a series of very expressive and tender photografies; or perhaps the other way around; it does not matter. It is the first tales book that I read in many, many years and I greatly enjoyed every single page. Worth having it handy...just to get into her world from time to time...especially when thisngs outside it get tuffer.
    But Sati herself must be some one unique. Otherwise she could not produce such sensible and delicate work...but in addition to it, she takes the trouble to reply allways with warm and friendly words to all those who coment her pictures (and there are may). Amazing.
    Thanks Sati for the pleasure that we all get from enjoying your work and king and warm personality...very, very unique!! and please keep on going...this great creative flow cannot stop...we need it!!

    "Sati is kind and gentle and sensitive and an exceptional artist, and she is my friend. Some of her work is so intricate that I sit and ponder at its complexity and wonder how it's done. Some others are so minimal and simple appearing that I look at those and wonder how they're done. In every work of Sati's there is balance and strength and creativity whether it be whimsical like her animal stories, complicated like her darker works, or minimal like her works of the world around her. And the wonderful thing, too; she always takes time to comment on and encourage others. Bravo, Sati!"

    "Sati may be on the other side of the globe but I have the privilege to see the world through her eyes almost everyday. To me, her photos depict a continuing journey through life. She is a loyal contact who faithfully visits and comments on her contacts' photos. I've been fortunate to be her contact and in the group "Hour of the Diamond Light" that she diligently administers. Keep it up, Sati."

    BerndDaub says:

    "It is a great compliment for a photographer when one can say, he has an own style, a kind of making images, which is emphasizing his images about lots of uniform photos.

    But Sati is a special case. She has 3 styles of making images and when one is looking to anonymous images one will recognize her pictures and say: “This is Sati-Art”.

    There is the dark, mysterious style, which remembers me to the good old masters of criminal movies in black and white.
    I am also seeing impressive images of “mirror-art”, which I have never seen before in this kind. A perplexed diversity of lines, forms and figures and the symmetric mirror is acting as surprise and is arranging a systematic impression.

    And last but not least there are harmoniously colored images with animals as models, most with the well known rabbit. These are nice images, which seems to be sequences of a romantically dream.

    All this is realized by perfect technique work.
    I advise everyone who is interested in photography to study sati’s images to learn composition, fantasy and creativity."

    "What a great treat to have stumbled upon Sati here on Flickr. She has brought so much inspiration and creativity to the site with thought-provoking, breathtaking, deeply moving and comical images. Her imagination is often on overdrive and we're all the happier for it. Her images are one of a kind yet the emotions and feelings behind them are universally appealing. A fantastic artist and one of the most friendly, charming contacts on Flickr. I look forward to viewing many, many more of Sati's works in the future. If you haven't visited her photos, you don't know what you're missing. Go now. Have fun!"

    "Un testimonial per Sati è il minimo che io possa fare per consolidare un rapporto d'amicizia nato da alcuni mesi.
    Sati, sta al confine tra realtà e fantasia.
    I suoi lavori non sono mai banali ed ogni sua immagine è unica ed irripetibile.
    Sati, ha una sensibilià fotografica ed umana, che trasferisce nei suoi lavori.
    Il suo occhio è sempre molto attento e s'interessa di tutto quello che le succede intorno.-
    le sue immagini sono lo specchio della vita rielaborate con classe e magia...magia....magia...... ed ecco spuntre coniglietti...uccellini....in un mondo fantastico.....
    Non passa giorno che io non vada a visitare il suo porfolio e scambi con lei piacevoli commenti sulle nostre foto.
    Sati oltre adessere un ottomo fotografo, daotata di buona tecnica, per me è diventata un'amica capace di meravigliarmi ogni giorno...."

    "Sati is a relatively new contact of mine -- though I'd seen her work and her comments on other photos. Sweet Magic, indeed, Very. Her very essence is kind and loving and you can see her smiling in her words.
    She cares. Deeply.

    Her photos? They are refreshingly original and wondrous. I think she was blessed with more than several imaginations. If you ever get "down" or tired of flickr -- visit her stream. Wade in. It doesn't matter if you can't get back to shore. Her helping hand is always there. But you probably will want to just keep on deep-sea browsing --

    --her world is so very much worth it!"

    "Sati is a dear Flickr friend and administers my favorite group, Soul's Resonance. Her contributions to the Flickr community are threefold: Excellent photography, encouraging support and the management of at least the one group, maybe more.

    She represents the best of Flickr by bringing people together. I'm fortunate to have her listed as a friend."

    "Angélica Sati Kobashi is one of the most inspired and inspirational photo ARTISTS, I ever encountered. She is able to create artistic photography from everyday things. Her arcane, often dark and always very atmospheric photos are a delight to behold.
    She is able to leave her unique, artistic touch even on everyday things, like for example a mushroom or a sweet rabbit. Her photos are very deep, and in my opinion emotional and sensitive. These works are never explicit, they are always a bit secretive - like love and truth.
    Also there is immense passion in her works - this passion and understanding LOVE of life shines on. When looking at her works, it is easy to live through the feeling of "everything is new" and is waiting only for us to discover.
    I love the depth of her works, and the mysterious delicacy I never encountered before.
    When looking at her photos it is always something profound and inexplicable - in the most peculiar way, as David Bowie sang.
    Sati Kobashi has a very resolute style and I am looking forward her new works with huge interest."

    "When I look at Sati's work, I cannot help but feel that I'm in the presence of greatness. She doesn't just make photography, she paints worlds and create universes like none has seen before. Her great imagination and skill with the visual mediums could certainly earn her great recognition in the artistic community, yet her humble approche and attitude has us humbled in return. She doesn't ask for stardom, but I am sure that stardom will surely reach her door someday. Thank you for being my friend and contact, for letting me into your fantastic mind and for teaching me that there is more than the eye and the mind can see through the viewfinder of the camera."

    "Do you believe in magic?

    Do you believe there are places fairies dance and light and dark battle all around us while we go about our daily lives unknowing?

    Sati will show you the way to lands of mystery hidden just beyond perception... The places you almost think you see when you turn suddenly... Where a fire can burn your eyes but not your hand... Where a cathedral can suddenly glow with its own aura... Where a simple flower can be a beacon in the night, a field of green an other-worldly landscape, and doors can open on universes unthought-of.

    A friend, a commenter, a person who knows the difference between dead poets and the Grateful Dead, who can understand and appreciate a haiku, and behind it all a laughing, pretty young woman who greets each day with a smile and an eagerness to find those things we never see... That's Sati..."

She produces a constant stream of thoughtful masterpieces and at such a relentless pace it really blows me away. Most of her photographs are too good and personal for me to leave comments on, I'll let her work do the talking instead.

    Sati is what flickr is all about - a brilliant teacher and I respect her opinions greatly."

    "Sati - she, especially, creates such emotive, provocative photo art and it has been such work that has truly enriched the flickr experience. Certainly for me ... and for many others, as can be seen by reading her other Testimonials. But she gives not only through the photographic medium, her art pieces. No, Sati also offers much time and energy to delve into the work of others. You cannot help but feel she really cares about what others are trying to achieve and convey to other lovers of photography."

    "What can you not say about Sati? I have not met her but feel like I have! Sati was the first person to notice my work on Flickr. She has always been incredibly supportive and uplifting. I cannot explain how happy it makes me feel to have her comments on my photos. She also makes me jealous that Im not as upbeat as her! She is sweet and caring and honest…….something that we could all aspire to. I see her work evolve each time she posts a photo. She has a definite eye for the freeform and abstract but imbibes her work with warm feelings as well. I think Sati perceives beauty in all things even those thing most of us would consider mundane. That is the trait of a person whose soul, mind, and heart have evolved to a higher realm. Thank You Sati for being you! If you ever come to Baton Rouge Im making you dinner!"

    "there are not many people who can photograph a window glass and make it interesting. there are not many people who can photograph a goldfish and make it look a spirit in the dark void. there are not many people who can photograph so genuine emotions like Sati does, by projecting them - for example - onto a landscape, onto the sky or onto a building.

    but Sati is not only a contact, she is also a good friend and, even if it is difficult to remain regularly in contact, every day at least one of my thoughts is for her."

    thespeak says:

    "For me, the ultimate test of 'art' is time. Some art is immediately alluring and the viewer is immediately drawn to glamor. While this is an enticing feature of art, it is also, for me, superficial. A richer form of art, in my view, draws the viewer in and never lets go. Some forms of art, be they music, photography, or architecture, shift and change over time. I believe that the ability to create a static piece of art that shifts, deepens, matures and brings out new form over the course of time is a sign of masterful achievement. Sati consistently creates astonishing images that do just that. Seeing Sati's photo stream for the first time is a fabulous experience, but returning for the ten thousandth time, seeing new images and old, and realizing that these images are richer, deeper and even more significant than they were the first nine thousand times is unbelieveable. Sati creates masterful abstract images that immediately foster fascination and intreague. As I have sat with Sati's images they have become vastly more beautiful. If this is your first time visiting this stream, you are about to see something incredible. If you are returning, as I am, again and again, then you know what I am talking about. Sati has a natural and innate ability to create . This stream epitomizes all that I love about Flickr, art and photography. For me, that is ALMOST everything that I care about. The only thing I left off of of that list is humanity. Then, I hope that you have an opportunity to get to know Sati. She continues to share her warmth, not only in the form of beautiful art, but also as a wonderful friend."

    "Sati is many wonderful things that make Flickr a better place to hang out and share one's art and experiences.

    She's an amazingly brave artist herself who never fails to experiment with new subjects, methods, and ideas. She creates visual experiences that linger in the brain long after the eyes have moved on to other things.

    What's more, as Admin and founder of the Feel Me/Post Me group she has encouraged people on Flickr to think outside the horribly restrictive box of "technique". From her home in Brazil she encourages people all over the world to find commond ground; to share feelings, emotions, and expereinces. This she does in an environment of her creation that doesn't run on "scores" or patronizing "critique" of peoples' heartfelt images. She encourages viewers to actually feel the art and share their feelings. Bravo!"

    It is through the group feel me Post me - I came to know her - It was just about five weeks back - I was on my death bed - I was trying hard to escape from the clutches of God YAMA ( In India we believe that YAMA is the God of death ) - It was around 2.30 A M here in india - somehow I let my situation through a message to sati - for about One Long hour she went on inspiring me to think positively - though from then about Three Days I was unable to pass on message Due to my struggle with the creator - She was Continueously anxious to Know my situation -
    With her Wishes I am here again

    She know nothing about me - yet she bothered about me

    Realy feel me Post me - symbolises her Charecter
    Her comments are encouraging - makes a contribution to the development of art - Humanity
    Her Photographs are Classic - different from one to other
    To Write a TESTIMONIAL about her - I think as a WRITER too - I will fail - because there is shortage of Words -
    I am proud to call SATI as My heart friend --------"
