POST 7: Changes to your study Program

 I have a few criticisms to the curriculum of my career in particular, because is a career that requires a lot of manual work, we need a good infrastructure to develop as artists. By this I mean having bigger and better spaces, better infrastructure, we need the university invests more in art and culture as they do in other faculties that generate more income. We do not have basic implements for the study of different techniques, which I believe is essential for art. I also believe that an improvement in the study space is very necessary, since it would be very significant for the motivation and performance of the students. I also believe that an improvement in the study space is very necessary, since it would be very significant for the motivation and performance of the students.  It would be interesting to implement in the central workshop digital art, restoration and expand the field of practice towards conceptual art, because to me, the art school has remained a little in ...

A person I would like to meet - POST 4

Imagen
A person who I loved too meet is the conceptual artist Ana Mendieta. She was and still is a very important woman in the art world, thanks to her works the Latin art has had a greater reception in the world since she became famous. Ana Mendieta was born in Cuba, but she grew up in the EE.UU, she lived her entire life as a migrant,  she was murdered by her husband at the age 36, so she is to mea clear victim of patriarchy, I appreciate that her art work continues to create gender awareness for the new generations like mine. in his works she talks and develops about the concept of territory, the gender and the body. she was a distinctly feminist, in her performances, films and sculpture. Ana Mendieta explored the emotional connection between her body and the natural world around her. for me she is an example of what I want to do in the future with my career because since I meet her I realized that it is very important to relate the body to the art, because they become one when we talk...

France - POST 1 (Inglés IV)

Imagen
 I would love to get to know France, I never had the privilege of getting to know Europe and all his entire artistic scene. from the gastronomy to the architecture, France is fascinating country, that gives importance to culture and humanity unlike our country. I've always listened french music, specially jazz and hip hop, I think because his accent and how it sound really captivate my ears and takes me back to another world. One of the places that I would like to visit the most in France is the Lovre Museum and the Museum of modern art in Paris.  I believe that it is essential for me as a developing art student to have the possibility to visit and study in this beautiful and majestic country. I would love to learN the lenguage, in fact I plan to go to some school or institute to learn because I intend to go to study in France my current career, it would mean a very important artistic growth for my profession.

Silvio Rodriguez's Concert - POST 2 (Inglés IV)

Imagen
Well, my concert's experience are very limitate because it is very expensive in our country (like everything), but the concert that I remember with more affection and joy it’s Silvio Rodriguez concert in october 2018. It was held in Movistar arena and I went with my dad for his 56 birthday, he’s our favorite artist so I gave him one ticket for the concert. It was a very special day to me because it was the first time I saw Silvio Rodriguez live and it was with my dad so it was a very exciting day for both of us. My dad and I share a lot of common tastes, he teach me to always have social conscience   and never forget our family history and were I come from   so that’s why Silvio Rodriguez is a very important artist for us. He’s able to transmit the injustices of the world with a lot of serenity and beautiful songs. Silvio Rodriguez transports you to the streets of La Habana with his songs, a place that me and my dad love   deeply.

The world of textiles - BLOG 8

Imagen
  During the pandemic it has been difficult for me to have a favorite subject, because   the difficulty of taking art classes and its particularity of being a more face-to-face and technical career. But the subject that I liked the most and that has managed to interest me, and I can carry out a complete investigation that in turn has been very motivating for me is the complementary textile workshop. In classes we have seen the many ways to fabrics   dye   with natural and artificial elements, from knowing their components to carrying out your own experimentation. It has been very interesting and at the same time a very simple practice to do at home, without expensive materials and is a   very friendly techniques for the environment. Then we begin with the lacing processes, when they explain how to braid with different techniques. I really enjoy this subject, it also involves millenary practices, where you can freely experiment and also get involved with th...

the benefit of living in community - BLOG 7

Imagen
  When I decided to study art, one of my main doubts was how it would be possible to carry out the social work that I think is essential in all areas.   Immediately I could understand that in my opinion it is the kindest area when generating these collaborative spaces that involve the community, although there are many paths in art, which in the mostly   the artists are the protagonists. In my creative process I hope to be able to integrate myself into community spaces, where I can deliver and be part of a collective to contribute to the community an everyone who is part. I sincerely believe that art contemplates all areas and has a language that is available to everyone, dynamic, horizontal and friendly, which can be use to create social awareness, report bad practices, make visible actions and stories and most importantly, create union and resistance in the population. For this reason, I believe that art is essential to make important changes in the world, which t...
