BLOG - 5 Changes To My Study Programme

Imagen
I think this topic summons us all from a negative critic position, but I will try to be as objectively critical as possible with this haha.  The faculty of arts of the university of chile historically has been an abandoned place, left of maintenance, resources, supplies, etc, as a smaller scale manifestation of the system that organizes us, where it is not imperative to inject resources enough to the arts and culture, precarizing this necessary and incessant field.  I do not know the author and the year in which this photograph was taken, but it captures a part of the interior of the faculty of arts of Las Encinas, and despite not having knowledge of the date, I do not think it is very old since it is totally recognizable the worn infrastructure.  But, despite the installation deficiencies, floods, leaks, workshops deficient in materials, and the signal that is canceled when you get to this backyard of the campus, which is separated from the hardness of the cement because...

BLOG - 4 Time Travel to the Past or Future

Imagen
HI! The subject of time travel has always been something that has caused me a little fear but at the same time intrigue. It's a topic addressed through many types of creations, series, books, movies, comics etc. so it is something that I have thought about several times, but always from a somewhat unattainable fantasy. When I was a child I thought more about traveling to the future than to the past, my closest reference was the movie of the family of the future, I imagined myself flying over big cities in a flying car. I dreamed of the future from a retro visuality, like the people of the 50's and 60's who fantasized about robot appliances, roads as ramps and flying cars, like retro-futuristic cities. Arthur Radebaugh I think what attracts me is a purely aesthetic question, solutions that seem to me a bit funny and unrealistic, I think the concerns raised in the past about the future are somehow solved, through other artifacts of course. This vision of the futu...

BLOG 3 - My dream job

Imagen
Hello! today i'm going to write about my dream job. When I was little one of my dream jobs was to be a dentist, I think because I was a little scared and once I went to one that had a television on the roof and gave me a gift when the consultation was over, I think my mind as a child saw an opportunity that was never going to prosper because I have no of vocation as a dentist. My path was always marked by the interest of studying arts, but due to external influences I gave me some turns considering other possibilities that had greater economic guarantees, but always knowing that I would end up entering to arts, and so it was and I'm already finishing the career. Without a doubt it is a dream to work doing art, to make a living from it, but it is a very uncertain destiny and for that reason it is a dream that I have to work for. A great dream for me would be to travel living of the works that I do, for example, something that I have been learning is the tattoo and it would be in...

Hello! today i will tell you about a trip that i remember very dearly.  For christmas 2020, my mom made an incredible gift to my brother and me! a eurotrip :o a dream we all shared.  As we were in the middle of the pandemic and everything was uncertain, the trip had to be postponed for a long time, at first it was proposed for the beginning of 2021, then for the middle of the same year, but finally, due to the contingency we traveled in February 2022, but we used all the waiting time to plan the trip we were going to do, from that moment it was very exciting. my mom keeps saying that one travels three times, while planning, while living it and when remembering, and she was right.  The adventure started the night of february 18th from Santiago to our first stop: Madrid, it was a flight of more than 12 hours with no stops :o, luckily i was able to sleep most of the trip. We arrived there and a cousin of my mom was waiting for us, part of the trip was to meet family tha...

BLOG 1 - A Country/Place I Would Like/Love To Visit

Imagen
Hello, in this first blog I am going to talk about two countries that I would like to know, the truth is that there are many places in the world that I would love to visit. But there are two destinations that are within the american continent that have caught my attention most of my life, and that's because of the distances are a little easier to access, well, one more than the other. The first destination and the most distant is Mexico, this country has always caught my attention, I think it is a huge cultural power, a very rich territory in terms of identity which translates into the content of their villages, cities and landscapes. If someday I go to Mexico I would love to be in Coyoacan, Morelia and Guanajuato, but it would have to be a long trip, because those places are not so close to each other and there is a lot to know.  And the other destination, which is closer, a little more than two hours across the mountain range is Argentina, particularly Buenos Aires. Argentina is ...
