PROJECTS

Hello. In this post i want to took a little  of my art projects this semester.
I studied in the ceramic workshop of the university with my professor Cecilia . Currently im working on the final exam. The tittle of my art project is 18:54:39 this name is actually a measure of the time that I spend doing this proyect. It is about ceramic pottery and time, this are the two topics that im interested. For me , doing pottery is a kind of ressistance of the crafts in the modernity. So I did a lot of pots, like twenty , and every pot that I made was marked with a meassure of time in his but. This measure correspond to the time it took me to do each pot. And the tittle is actually the sum of every measure of time. In ressume the thing is that im trying to generate a tenssion between the pot as a support and the mark. My teacher Cecilia says that the proyect is right but its necessary for me to do a large amount of pots. But this is not easy!



Kisses and regards

2016 politics matter

Hello. In this new post I want to share some opinions about the next year. like a projection of the political development of Chile.
I choose this topic because is more complex than the others , and I like this challenge.
Bachelet's goverment started in 2014 with a very high energy, announcing deep changes for the general system (in they own terms) but in the practice they haven't accomplish. Some important reformulation has been done like a change in the binominal election system and in the taxes system. This two things are very important but I thing that these are little steps in comparison with the major promeses made by her coalition . The two mayor thing are a free education and a new constitution and I think that now we are very far away from these.
In my personal opinion I think it is very suspictious that bachelet (who repressed 2006 student movilizations) now appears with a kind of spirit of change. I dont believe that she is really interested in deep changes for the society.
The next year 2016 or maybe the 2017 is cruissial because if the reformulation for the educational system are not finished, the students will be on the streets again, and if the bachelets goverment decide to repress the student movilisation its gonna be the evidence of the hypocrisy of the chilean political class.

BEST HOLIDAYS EVER

My very very best vacation time was the last year. From October 13 to 23. I and a group of friends from the art career decided to visit the bienal of sao paulo in Brazil. It was my first time in Brazil , an amazing country.
We started to organize parties in the faculty to earn some money, selling beers and other things. The objective of visit the Bienal was so clear for us that we were very decided about get ahead with this project.
Once there, in Sao Paulo, everithing was fantastic. The Bienal of Sao Paulo was so huge, three or maybe four days to see it was absolutely necesary. It was enormus.
It was the best vacation time because I traveled with my boyfriend and a group of friends and it was very exiting because we  traveled to diferent places like art museums, different parks and places of the city of Sao Paulo, everything was new for me. Brazilian people are very nice to.
I hope to return there some day.

What I think about the blogs...

Hello my dear wonderful friends.
This post is about how I feel about blogging (it works? can I transform blog in a -ing verb? anyway, whatever...)
Well, I think that is really important to try to develop our writing skills in general. In spanish too.
When I try to write something (in general) the most difficult part for me is to decide how to do it. More than the grammar problems. which things are important to say , why and how to express yourself in a correct way.
But grammar problems are very important too! im not trying to say that it is easy for me. at all
Probably I already have a lot of mistakes in this few lines.

I think that the blog is a very good experience,  its a very funny exercise too .
For me was very strange to write the first posts at the beginning of the course because im not used to write in english. but now I feel more used to this.
I really dont know if I have developed more skills in english, I hope so.
I would like to include in this exersice an essay or maybe a little literary chronycle. Or maybe write some poems.

Good Bye everyone. Best Wishes on the exam tomorrow

Kiss

LONDON WEBQUEST

This activity was very funny. It give us a possibility to imagine a real travel to london. Was funny for me to visit london art museums websites. There is a lot of information about the artists and the art collections. I think the most interesting thing for me was to try to find some contemporary art gallerys in london , I realized that there are a lot of this places in the city and I really want to go there.
I enjoy the activity, but I think London looks like a very expensive city to visit, and that is not so good.

I have not ever visited London but im shore that the Tate Modern Art Museus must be a very fascinating place to visit, so I recomed this place.

A website that i like

I like to spend time on internet. the websites that I frecuently visit are about culture, news, etc.
One of my favorite sites is Google art Project. because this site provides very high qualitity photograps of art objects. This site is organiced by diferent sections. Each section is an especific art museum. there are the phhotograph of the art pieces that the museum have in their collection actually.
For example i can put on the site "Museum of Moder Art of New York" and then appears hundred of works of art. The quality of the photographs is too good that you can actually "zoom" it until you can see the craquelle of the oil panting. Im interested mostly in painting work, so for me is a very didactical way to get aproach to the painting process of old masters. I recomend to everyone to visit this site ;) its a very interesting one.

Photograph


Hi every one!

This is a photograph of me and other eleven friends visiting the Bienal of Sao Paulo, in Brazil. It was taken on october of 2014. During the opening of the exhibition.
We were just walking in this enormus and beautiful building, made by Oscar Niemeyer ( a very important brasilian modernist architect), when one of us (i dont remember who exactly) said: oh lets take a picture! and we started to ask for somebody who wants to take a picture of us. and then a very kind brazilian guy offered to us his help. This is the result. I think is a very good photograp because it shows the light and the space of the building, an amazing space and a beautiful light. We look very tiny but it isn't a problem.
This travel was very interesting and funny. Sao Paulo is an enormus and vibrant city, but not only the Bienal is interesting for visit , they have other great museums like the Masp, the contemporary art museum of the university and the Pinacoteca do Estado de Sao Paulo, My favorite ;)
