Oscar Wild's "The happy Prince"

Oscar Wild's "The happy Prince" let us know that, after all, Prince's statue's heart was just lead, as the artist of the story concludes. This is a story of a Reed which was too hurried on skaping to Egypt, and an auto-admired Prince' sculpture retaining the bird for his own purposes. People at the town presume the sculpture was feeling alone, since, it is just an high-cost object, any mind, in the landscape, but everyone wants, but I guess it's not true, it really is an over-protective statue, while bird is actually an interested swallow, which agree to serve as companion, instead of travelling, to enjoy sculpture's jewelry. I like this story because it is far away from a given moral fable, so usual in Latinamerica's tales for kids. It supposes to be a metaphore of people's conduct, and shows reality as it is.


Un unfair given away.

 Winning and Giving: Football Results and Alumni Giving at Selective Private Colleges and Universities supposses to be an investigation on giving behavior in football players at private colleges and universities (Turner, Meserve, Bowen, 2002). Authors state that might be a relationship between winning a game, the happy mood of the player, and something about he getting ansioux for giving, to extent donations, to a fair campaign, as if being a sport's practicioneer made him more sensitive to social affairs. Evidence supposes to be investigation itself. Authors brought from their coats sleeves a methodology of fixes estimates. Being myself secure of they trying to prove whatever thing they want to listen, I can't believe someone had paid an investigation like this one, since, maybe sports would make better persons from players, and still, it is probable, kids became more responsible of their own health, maybe they work more like a team, and of course, they get competitive skills, which does not means they will donate nothing, unless you deserve it, could any player respond. As feeling sensitive toward poor people is a learned behavior, it's more probable players would donate time to women after sports, and follow typical path of being aware of selves, as teenagers suppose to conduct. Are they paid? Is any taking from their money for social causes? Are authors trying to support a new social behavior program on football players? If that, sponsors would like them to work more on overall kids' skills, as well as on social competences, and behavioral issues, not only giving, mainly if they have been working on finnancial intelligence with the alumni. Are they a kind of a religious college? If so, they might know that any, even adults, are going to donate without a budget from game's winning cups, or maybe, they are who do launch scholarships from playing instead.Think of this, giving is a social manner of saying “I'm magnanimous and notorious”, unless you appear at the top of the newspaper, or are given something in exchange, a dinner, a merchandising, no one is going to donate a dimme, don't expect kids being different. As predicted, results from investigation refers of not having found a relationship between winning, or even losing a game, and giving. “General giving rates are unaffected by won-lost records at the high-profile Division IA schools and at the Ivy League schools (Turner, Meserve, Bowen, 2002, p.1)”. I think this is a bad formulated question, evidence is impenitent, not valid, not relevant, not having clear purpose of why launching it, honestly, I hardly conclude this investigation is a waste of time. So, what to ask? Ask if we can launch a better win-win commitment, think, for instance, of giving a couple of shows to budget a campaing, once, not every day, not of letting football equipment run out a dollar into their pocket, it won't motivate any, since every player is there, launching his/hers football career to earn their very own money, money for buying beautiful things, to gather the never-could life, consider most of them did not go to school for school by itself, but for getting a place into the professional competences.

Suspicious stories around Gypsies.

Lately, we were watching with “kids”, some gypsies' documentaries at my social media on Facebook. I always try to figure out my audience, since I'm not being able of receiving comments back, I'm restricted to ask every friend of mine what do they think of any proposal I mention around orange economy in order to validate the project, so every insight would result of a meaningful story for everyone. Thou, I resent, any has bought my productos and services yet, I will insist and will follow crabbing every product. This atempt has to do with putting content into my notebooks, so I can add value to the object itself. Then, maybe I can create some drawings for every story, and a package with a mug, crayons, a T-shit and a candy. 

First, people have said, mainly teachers, they found useful my notes around starting up in orange economy for classroom work with kids all ages, for them junior middle school might be alright. I bet I can catch kids, youth and families. Then, they enjoy my stories, so I'll try to put all together, my abbility of storytelling and the need of teaching entrepreneurship. I guess I can do a couple of things more, kids are going to learn english with these stories, and maybe I can cover health necessities for art therapy, as I was asked to research, by the time I ends my MBA project, everyone is going to be working on it already, since I've been putting releases of the information around the topic I gather for investigation on the Facebook, because it needs an urgent action from ourselves, social services are a disaster. 

So, in advance, I can construct this stories for waiting rooms at medical services. I'm not going through administrating any art therapy sessions. I do have the idea of distributing posters with an QR on them, so people can get a weekly story on their cell phone, and indeed, you can go to the dentist week by week and find a new story every appointment. I still don't have a huge database to post them at an app, but I still can send them through an SMS service, or copy some prints and sell them. 

Therefore, writting the stories could make the difference with other proposals. Written stories for kids can be useful at school class and everlasting through time. So, I can continue working at my whale like storytelling effort without thinking of competing with other social media proposals, even from true managers at the market. ¡Common on! Harry Potter would release another saga before I can finish this job. Having trouble with my english composition, two hours on a road ... 

Getting back to the day we were watching videos, I was asking myself if I could gather the purposes I met during the planning process, which was one related to a business point, we are not being so kind, we don't match, we are not meeting team work competences for our start ups, starting up supposed to be with people, and we are not supportive people. To pull this up, I got an idea, to show people documentaries online. Documentaries about real people. 

For doing this, I usually construct a programme as leading a live radio, so entries follows a discourse which grows backwards from the bottom to the top of the Facebook, I can't mind how people can relate to the story, but actually that's the way it functions. Compilling the stories I will solve this problem, so maybe tails are going to have a classic format, but thinking of whatever questions kids would ask during the released, just like audiences participating on air, letting me organize promptly and fresh answers, just like at a normal day at home, listening at the media. 

Furthermore, reviewing learning french language videos, some for kindergarten kids, I found out there are a so emotional content at mom's reading aloud of a story, which let listener to get into the adventure getting an easier path for learning, it doesn't have to be too sophisticated to get people's interest on a matter. While seeing drawings, you may understand the new vocabulary without translation. Let's see a bit, how this writting exercise would function. Here an example related on kindness and teamwork.

Suspicious stories around Gypsies. 

Gypsys are people who, as we can find at the YouTube videos, constitute an old human group, too old that they mobilized through time from north of India, border of Iran, to Europe, there are two main caravans, one who walked following Mediterranean Sea, the other one, who went into Central Europe, even toward Nordic countries. Some gypsies relate that maybe they were crossing Babylon just while Nabucodonosor's reign as we can find it in the Bible, the oldest mention of the community in a written book. Remember, gypsies did not learn how to write or read by the time, the got only attitude, so, they stared king Nabucodonor and deny telling him significance of his dreams because they considerated he must not continue on the power, that he did not deserved the charge. I know, the were killed for not doing that, but they acted according to their believe and common sense. This is not easy, it has to do with seeing things just like they are, not the way we can imagine them. For all purposes, Gipsies are stupidly practical. 

Then, at a new opportunity, there's a story about gypsies staring to jews, Gypsies are good observers. There are a correlation between journalism and Gypsies, they can relate almost every point and fact on history, that is not other than to be at the right place and moment to take the picture. This time, Persians were fighting against Romans, everyone knows Persians won because they had better technology than Romans. Most of the Jews wanted Persians to won the war, and the fact is contemporary to Jesus Christ's life. You can imagine moms telling their kids to avoid going after people with weapons, instead convoking children to stay at the church listening to the word. 

As we could follow at the documentary we were seeing, Gypsies love vehicles, all kind of machinery or animal which can move them foward, better at a great velocity. This is not to do at home, it takes time to teach a horse not to jump over their back legs during a gymnastic exercise at the circus. Anyhow, we could see Gypsies at a bicycle; later on at a motorcycle, as well; at a camel, so they show they were climbing to a small tractor to work, not on plantations, cutting wood, the Gypsies we saw were living at a dessert. Actually, they brought out water from the land, they trapped snakes and babbles to eat, they even tried to hypnotize a snake for the documentary camera, they show how do this process; they gathered honey from a bees' hive; and everything looked to be all right and on calm. 

Gypsies last lots of time on their personal arragement, so they can look defiant toward cameraman; exotic; young, more than any other culture; and extreemly modern if we consider any of them has seen a foreigner in their lives, we conclude they maybe got their garments from commerce with arabs, as they dress much better than I do at a city like Bogota. Many of them wear hucles and black glasses, jewlry and had painted their faces for going to a party. They looked happy, good looking, and all of them danced even while working. Both, we saw, women and men work together, it doesn't matter how tiresome their job is. And even their women are as free like occidental ones. They can choose their husbands, anyone is rejected, all belong together, or pull up to doing any thing they don't want to do. 

Back on time, Gypsies did not last too much, rate of life was aroud 40-45 years old, so whenever they had to get into a decision, they joined around the elder's counsel, which reunited, actually, you guess, people around 40 to 45 years old. Whenever you see Gypsies' communities, same as Japanese ones, I guess, you may think you are talking to kids, as they remain laughing always, it is their humanitarian way through life, they are not tall, and it's not frequently to find their long hair, white. 

At the end of the journey, even nowdays, Gypsies return to the caravan, but before, they count every child, one by one, to see any get lost of the group. All Gypsies have a sense of family, consequently, they go with their kids everywhere showing them all kind of marvelous things around the world. 

Once, a criminal scaped at a caravan, then Police came to any circus one, and reviewing every Gipsy, stared at a clown backwards in the stage: “¡Hey, you … yes, the one backwards, stop laughing!”. 

So on, days come and go at a Gypsy community.


How to talk to girls at parties, Neil Gaiman's book released.

 How to talk to girls at parties, Neil Gaiman's book released. 

The story I most liked of all english composition 0101 classes at UoPeople was this short story Neil Gaiman wrotes about the origin of Piscodelia's movement: How to talk to girls at parties (2006), which was released as a book with awsome illustrations by Amazon into the market, and it's already a bestseller. His author is a worldwide well-known writer, too, because the story got to be produced for the movies by the great director John Cameron Mitchell, with the participation of the spectacular actriz Nicole Kidman, as well as, it has being widely reviewed by press and media all around the globe (Amazon, 2021). 

What I liked the most of this story has being having the opportunity to learn a lot more about the industry than expected. I went into the author's webpage as I could scrutinized the way he as a journalist has launched his career not only by writting an excelent story, but through a strategic marketing process. Author is more likely a literature rock star with a bunch of agents for every issue, one for the talks tour, other for the movie releases, a third one related to libraries distribution, a forth dealing with press and media, a fifth, selling the merchandising, and so on. 

Running into his agenda, of course I contacted his agent to see if they can consider coming for a talk to our country, actually I ask them to put in contact to Cultural Ministry, I'll couldn't afford organizing that kind of meeting, Gaiman has scoped almost all 2022's first semester with talks around the Pacific Ocean's cities of the United States. There's lots of You Tube's entries about his conferences that are always full of people interested on his experience as succesfull author. And it's not a coincidence, San Francisco area was the real landscape where the origin of Psicodelia had placed in 70's. 

Because I'm a truly fanatic of rock and roll music and its history, I related to my book, I'm always proud of collecting authentic jewells, written by my friend Manolo Bellon, a colombian journalist, and tv shows frontman, who had the oportunity to meet different artists at that time for colombian tv interviews, to look specifically for this commenced of his narration about interviewing The Beatles.

Here Bellon describes a place in California, similar to that one described at Gaiman's story, actually located at a London suburb; instead San Francisco's area, as told by Bellon, results to be much-alike to the atmosphere I could perceived in the story, that's why I think location for the movie was exceptionally well chosen; Summarizing, Bellon says that specially Haight-Ashbury, a San Francisco's neightborhood, used to be a perfect set for growing up as musician, where people took advantage of the clima to listen to the music, surrounded of an endless creative liberty, with no obstacles to work on these projects, though, it was true, it was permetted by prohibited substances supossedly to stimulate creativity, converting itself as a meeting center for thousands of kids coming from all US's corners. These were victorian style houses turned into communal housing for utopic boys and girls who yelled love and peace, as so that through Psicodelia, musicians translated his sensations while using drugs. Then, he ends relating how George Harrison, who came to California with Paul McCartney, dwelled the kid's degradation of hinduism's taughts that he helped to popularize, making look hinduism's practices at the city distorted and irreal. 

I hardly recommend this reading for rock and roll's learners' delight. 

As follows, a transcript from Bellon's book in his own spanish words (2009): 

“El clima – no sólo el metereológico, también el musical – es estupendo. Hay mucha más libertad creativa y bastantes menos cortapisas para trabajar.” Bellon, M (2007, p.207). 

“Es que la música – no se decía en voz alta – ya estaba permeada por sustancias prohibidas que estimulaban la creatividad.” Bellon, M (2007, p.207). 

“Un poco más al norte de Los Ángeles, San Francisco, especialmente en el sector de Haight-Ashbury, se convierte a mediados de los años sesenta en el centro de reunión de miles de jóvenes venidos de todos los rincones de Estados Unidos.” Bellon, M (2007, p.208). 

“Y Haight-Ashbury, muy cerca del parque Golden Gate, al pie de la costa Pacífica, tenía hermosas casas de estilo victorianoque con el tiempo se convierten en inquilinatos – viviendas comunales – en los que viven estos muchachos y muchachas que buscan la utopía del amor eterno y la paz.” Bellon, M (2007, p.208). 

“Así que la psicodelia en la música reflejaba lo que sus creadores experimentaban cuando consumían el ácido u otras sustancias; esas sensaciones las transladaban luego al arte.” Bellon, M (2007, p.209). 

“Su impacto fué todavía mayor cuando Paul McCartney y George Harrison, de The Beatles, visitaron la ciudad.” Bellon, M (2007, p.209). 

“Harrison volvió frustrado por lo que percibió como la degradación del ser humano, pese a que muchos pregonaban la religión hindú, que justamente The Beatles y el propio Harrison habían popularizado. El hinduísmo de la ciudad le pareció distorsionado e irreal.” Bellon, M (2007, p.209).

 Re-writting life path. Women in business career and family. 

My nerves simply broked thinking of the idea of not being able to launch an artist career. I received suggestions of going into art therapy issues to solve both problems, the business plan, and my illness' relief. I was full attacked. In the meanwhile, I had not to raise my kids anymore, they grow up, actually, they are living home and I feel my hands just empty. The nurturing time has ended. Women seems to follow this path, putting down their purposes to circumstances, not finding the way back to business from the housekeeper tasks. 

A summary of what sometime a christian author wrote about gender equality in the labor market, Randel, Jr. G. (1998, pp. 243-257) might significate a hurl point of relevance for dealing with this situation: “… traditional family delegates women to a secondary labor sector of lower-paying, lowbenefit, dead-end-jobs”, states “wage differentials”. “Although most members of U.S. Society no longer expect that women should aspire to be only homemakers and mothers, social pressure neverthless remains on working women to hold primary responsability for the domestic life”. 

Because society stands behaviors on women in business... You get to be a god mom, which implies no budget. Being a good neightbor pulls you to face the risk of getting repute in your community. From dad's criterium, don't even step the street. Many women consider not parenting at all, I do defend my right of being a mom, and to act as one in business, that is not the question as I will not have to repeat it. Point is that if you are committed to take your own decisions, it implies financial freedom as requirement. Can't dream of launching a global career because you deserve it without handling with sword words: you are already fifty years old, anybody would believe in a third world country woman, go and see if you can launch your family support ... because you have being punished for been a single mother ... and far more, for not being enough eager compared to other women in industry, sorry but I'm not going to act as a man at the office. I want my money back now. I want to be wealthy and free. (The one corresponding to years of investment on family without an income. Be willing to respect your mom). 

“There are many subtle ways in which women are disadvantaged in pursuing academic carreers. Recognizing stereotypes is the first way to eliminate them”. - Listen - Two concepts. The glass ceilling – succesful women don't reach the top of their proffession because of gender condition. The maternal wall – women with children are less likely to achieve that men goals. Most of the competitive women avoid having children. Stereotyping. “... an employer fired an employee who sought to return from maternity leave on the grounds that mothers should stay at home until their children are grown”. “... success is largerly the accumulation of advantage”, … “in favor of promoting men, after a while, 65 percent of top-level employees were male. Conversely, the accumulation of disadvantage”, “for women creates very real job detriment”. “The glass ceiling is composed of two different patterns, one makes it harder for women to perceived as competent, women's succesful performance tends to be more closely scrutinized, and assessed by stricter standards than men's”. “Women tend to receive fewer rewards than men”. People expects women to be supportive, not “brilliant”, seeing too competitive. “Advancement in organization depends not only on competence assessments but also on social acceptance and approval”. Completing the brief, “worker mother is seeing as selfish and unsensitive”. “The paternal wall instead shows a worker father as warm and competent, good worker, the one who seek an active role in family care as taking kids to a soccer game”. “Men is expected to gain more than women. If taking care of children and had to take a part-time job, he might feel less men”. “So are stereotypes” - conclude the author -. Williams, J. (2004 – pp. 16-20). 

Getting the budget to pull up my entrepreneurship has been a jeopardy. As I helped with red cross giving psicological support during a “hecatomb (every day's colombian situation)”, and people still remember my retired dad, a medical doctor, as a respectful part of society, (they stand him to a saint's category), I was suggested to work on this art therapy affairs, as a means of “get to do something useful with your career in arts”. I'd like to mention importance of mentorship to get to be profitable at the business, an experienced businessman, giving relevance to orange economy, put out the need of constructing industry, and enhance employment for Latinamerica, of course, his way of seeing companies' building is larger ... I did changed my dad as recommended. 

For my dad all this issue results overwhelming. I need to state that I'm not going to threat patients through any artherapy practice, but storytelling, as it is my desire. From art-therapy brainstorm, thou, I recognize, it lets me acquire challenging and innovation resources for instaling my storytelling services in applications like: relief; education; entertainment; fighting stress; personal growth; life project; free time readings; social services; cultural animation; social media; tracking orange businesses, and ecommerce; human talent development; wellbeing quality; and society development in general. I still learned about tourism, international trading, lean concepts for cultural industries, existence o agile, scrum techniques, an a lot more issues during making the mock up of my proposal for validation into the market. So, I'm preparing myself for a beta validation of my product. I need to go forward. 

I'm considering, for instance, a study on Chilean's life stories showing how “cultural change occurs at the individual level”, taking in account “factors that motivate and inhibit processes of reinterpretation of personal experience, and identifies different levels at which it operates”. In the 60's, “the sociology of selfhood began to develop”. “Scholars observed the conformation of self identity in interactional context. Self as development in the person's psyche from the rules imposed by collective life”. “Self as a result of a reflective process in interactional everyday's contexts”. They introduce an idea of behavior as “emphasizing its performative nature”. “The development of different tools for empirical analysis of the dialogical relationship between self and society has accompanied this process. For example, the relationship between self-interpretation and prevailing social discourses has been examined as narrative work, and identity work”. “Still, the question of how individuals negociate the interpretation of personal experience over their lifetimes in the context of cultural change remains unexplored”. - Debate between esscentialism and constructivism -. “Negotiation of personal experience when the cultural references suffer transformations in a given society”. Bernasconi, O. (2011, pp. 20-37). Awsome. 

I still get to manage my dad's big figure on me, he even doesn't know I'm taking this grade. I think this is for me the most difficult part of being a company's woman manager, since I don't have his support, I don't have warranties for a debt. It means, the project of “Hay un lugar, Taller de arte” must be stronger enough for tracking it just by sells' incomes to make it profitable, and maybe to convicnce my kids of being greatful to mom, giving her a proper credit on her ideas, lenting her money for her purposes, while, thinking of continuing being part of the family, and getting manage to follow my kids' career's goal, which could be farther bigger than mine, in the sense, they are even more qualified than me. 

I found a study to be worried about, entrepreneurship practices at third world countries, which are being implemented on inmigrant population in the U.S. without success because they don't accomplish U.S. markets requirements, researches conclude they are not solving poverty, so they consider that these practices don't meet U.S. standards and must be reviewed. “Women in poor countries are launching nothing” shoots Bachrach, T and K (1998, pp.424-440). 

I further identify all the tasks I still have to do to construct a budget for my minimal viable product, and a five minutes elevator pitch as next step. New validation process. Between the issues I will have to follow through: 1. Enhance rehersal about audiences for storytelling (kids, youth, families, B2B, media, on stage, books, t-shirts, posters, waiting rooms, school class, etc); 2. Taking acknowledge of finnancing, a propposal for an on stage delivery; 3. Craft: gather the stories, not fairy tales, make drawings for PDF's books, thinking of notebooks; 4. Thrieve with numerical information for project costs, and contents; 5. Selling's funnel step; 6. Draft further development, markets, potential clients like schools, hotels, health, social services, orange, tourism, social media, legal expenses, for completing the company's business plan; 7. Budgeting the maquila, a new computer for design, marketing and selling issues, contract of human talent (yelling for help); 8. Offer product considerations, for catching buyers, and finnancial supporters; and finally, 9. Work on speeches. This is what is going to be everlasting, not matter all my mental training for being someone at life. 

This is an empirical study about textil industry founders and their responses to the same adversity, so researchers can compare results. This paper relates to resilence skills, and challenging times. I'll be worthy of reading later. Powell, E. and Baker, T. (2014, pp.1406 – 1433). 

Dealing with my feeling of being facing a big challenge in order to model my further career path, I think that working on resilence and emotional responses are important issues to gather motivation to continue, not for me, for everyone. Latinamerican families are more patriarcal and closed to new feminism ideas, I don't feel feminist, I feel nearest to a Christian revaluation of women work at society. I'm committed to a more maternal and less empowered way of leading a company, because I believe women stand families, and construct societies. It's important to continue working on development from a women point of view. It's a pity, feminists are throwing families to the garbage. I can't stand it. I don't feel less woman for being a mother, so I'll be launching and defending my proper place on society. Mothers have rights too. Women hold communities and social services, I bet for a “mutuality” model, I even raise my kids that way. You might to be respectful to your parents, and family might be supportive.

Entrepreneur: (Redefining Business Plan). 

Hay un Lugar, Taller de Arte (There’s a place - Once upon -, Workshop). Art Retail Shop, functional and decorative objects, books, gifts, and souvenirs. Hay un Lugar Magazine prototype (instead I’m developing a social media, more flexible model). Publication’s development (contents). Design and prototyping. Cultural Services, Consulting on communication, education, culture, edutainment, innovation and development. A projects office. I’m interested in tourism issues and international trade. From Magazine I rescue two projects. I gathered with educational purpose some www material around cultural management, I processed for being used with Commune 13’s kids (14-17 years old). I think this need cases studies and information about international trading to construct a learning book, for anyone who wants to learn how to enhance entrepreneurship competences. This could lead to become a speaker. 

Then, from an Art Therapy article at the magazine, I was told to developed investigation about intervention models, formative processes, and law frameworks around innovation on health care management to be applied by Colombian Government, so, I’m thinking about consulting services. It has following topics: disabilities, leisure and free time, well-being, reception and attention centers, psychological first aid, prevention, occupational work, leading toward job, between others.

Gluttonery 3

 

Gluttonery es una publicación anual que recoge toda la producción factual de Zafary – Hay Un Lugar, Taller de Arte, junto con algunos elementos de análisis sobre sus procesos.

 








Empecé con la idea de crear pequeños espacios en la casa que pudiesen funcionar como set para la grabación de entrevistas en video, de videos para Youtube sobre temas culturales o no, un lugar que pudiese ser fotografiado. Siempre pensé la imagen bidimensional como un objeto que forma parte de una composición más grande, la escenografía. El lugar en donde ocurren puestas en escena. Escenas realistas o fantásticas. Videos funcionales o experimentales.


Canal 13 era un canal escuela. Allí aprendimos a trabajar en estudio. Los presupuestos de las grabaciones en estudio son más bajos. Movilizar un equipo de realización por la ciudad para producir series, puede costar sus denarios. El estudio de grabación tiene beneficios y desventajas. Uno siente que toda la gente llega a uno, luego de meses trabajando en el proyecto, uno comienza a extrañar la calle. Es muy productivo tener todo a mano.

 

Esos objetos de marco con papel de color, o de lija con marco de cartón, son una propuesta al estilo 007, yo le había propuesto al director Luis Ospina diseñar unos cabezotes para películas por artistas plásticos basados en esas imágenes. “¿Cabezones?”, se quedó pensando y sonriendo.

 

Son traga humos, sí. Afectan la visual de quien mira con un infrarrojo.

2 ideas que le prometí a Jaime Ávila desarrollar. Yo no soy más inteligente que los demás, soy más obediente. “Explore los materiales, rompa con los marcos” … enmarcar cuesta un huevo, no me gusta deber, ni gastar más de lo que tengo. “Dale con el reciclaje”. Algunos materiales sí tuve que comprarlos. Me gusta el resultado de incluir plásticos, papel de aluminio, colores fluorescentes, da un aspecto artesanal e industrial a la vez.




Todavía no rompo los marcos del todo pero la idea es hacerlo, como en los ready mades que había construido previamente, tenía que mirar cómo me iba con los materiales. Hay un tema de dosificar la recolección de material reciclado porque hay que estimar una bodega para el tema. Uno no trabaja tan rápido y uno va seleccionando algunos materiales de su preferencia, por ejemplo, me gustan los esmaltados de los paquetes de cigarrillos Pielrroja, ni siquiera los quise intervenir con pintura. Trabajar cartón corrugado es muy práctico, aguantan todo, desde vinilos hasta esmaltes.

 

Algunos materiales se deterioran con el aire, este papel naranja se decoloró. Hay que tomar las fotos, muchos objetos no se conservan.

 





Pienso pintar muebles con esmaltes, piezas de mobiliario reciclado, voy a tener que determinar una estrategia para conseguirlos y almacenarlos. En un par de años expondré, diseños escenográficos. Tengo una idea con películas y cuentos fantásticos, como de Julio Verne. Escribo guiones pensando en novela negra también. Uno primero trabaja de modo convencional y luego deconstruye la estructura para darle forma a una nueva composición. Tenía que medir el espacio antes de arriesgar. Hice algunas pruebas de pintura gran formato para determinar el alcance de las realizaciones. Medir la capacidad propia y organizar la investigación sistemática de los materiales y procesos.

 




Lujo es hacer lo que a uno le gusta. Buscaré maneras de convertir esto en procesos industriales. Tengo dos procesos en curso, la producción de obra original, pintura, escultura, y el rediseño a partir de la obra para su uso sobre objetos funcionales.


 

Sencillamente no quiero vender la obra, todo esto se convertirá en impresos para afiche y retablo, con series limitadas, sobre papeles especiales, revisaré el tema. Esto quiere decir que una exposición mía estaría compuesta por una composición escenográfica de objetos originales, y una producción seriada de réplicas para la venta, en las mejores condiciones de calidad y portabilidad. ¡Costos! La gente comprará si accede al precio. “Y si es bonito y bien acabado”. Lo bello es discutible, yo sí pienso arriesgar incluso en objetos funcionales.

 

¿Qué piensan de esto? A mí la naturaleza me causa curiosidad.






Tabaco.

 

Satisfecha con mi última producción de miniaturas, vinilo sobre cartón corrugado. Paisaje. La idea es que la gente se lo pueda llevar. Pero bajo ninguna condición negocio con el espectador de la obra. Obra es obra, hay producciones para diseño, de alguna manera concilio con el gusto del comprador, pero es que ni siquiera puedo hacer objetos fuera del contexto del arte. Es como ser daltónico. Nada que hacer.¿A ver qué les parece?

20 cms. X 9 cms. Incluso menos.

 






















Con respecto a los videos, que me preguntaban, este año únicamente trabajé sobre Kid Luciana, no se pudo presentar en vivo pero ya encontrará este performance su lugar. Es tan rápido como ocurren las situaciones que no alcanzo a hacer una edición digna, para el arte, el video y la foto, cuando no se utilizan como recurso para la producción de la obra, importan como registro gráfico, el soporte de una acción que ya es en sí misma. Buscaré el tiempo para producir los videos y los guiones de largometraje.

Es interesante para la propuesta de Revista Hay Un Lugar, la posibilidad de incursionar en la industria editorial con libros, videos, audios …


Y por supuesto que este año también trabajé sobre la revista. Las 5 revistas del pilotaje (para no terminar en el aeropuerto) versan sobre el emprendimiento naranja, creo que quedó el contenido completo, con el material que salió se puede publicar un libro, voy a buscar las imágenes.

 Sí, este año, Dios mediante, desarrollaré las propuestas para video, todavía queda un gran aprendizaje en temas de software. Así sean pequeñas piezas.


Y lo que viene.
