A quick glimpse at my room and the wall that slowly but surely is getting filled with more and more drawings, memories, hopes and all that; a mood wall if you will.

It’s in the fabric
For this post I will take you back in time, to the moment when I first discovered Photoshop. The assignment was to create a set of three prints that used collage both made manually and using Photoshop, that worked as a narrative, the inspiration that we all had build up our images from was Kafka’s Metamorphosis. This was my result.

Please…
But please sign the petition “The Brazilian Congress has just passed a catastrophic forestry bill that gives loggers and farmers free rein to cut down huge swaths of the Amazon. Now only President Dilma can stop it.” http://www.avaaz.org/en/veto_dilma_global/?wLvUcdb or if you prefer http://www.greenpeace.org/international/en/campaigns/forests/amazon/Tell-President-Dilma-Rousseff-to-veto-the-new-Forest-Code-bill/

Debora Arango
Debora Arango, Montañas
Her work is currently being exhibited el Museo Nacional de Colombia until August, how I wish to be able to see it. In the mean time, now that I am finally free I will spend some quality time learning more about her, and her work. It’s always nice to get the perspective of not just a Colombian artist, but a painter, and female who dealt with social issues. If anyone knows any good books, links etc that you can recommend please let me know what they are.
In the meantime here is a useful link (In Spanish I’m sorry) if you are around Colombia and want to see some art. http://www.revistaarcadia.com/arte/galeria/el-arte-tapujos-debora-arango/28427 or just Click on the picture.
My first portrait
Angela, MH.Sarkis, Acrylic on Paper, 2012
This is a portrait of me, by my friend MH. Sarkis, a very talented Lebanese, Nigerian, British artist, whose recent work has been based on her eclectic mix of cultures, and how they fight to come together as one. With such a different mix only exiting work can come out of it! If you didn’t get to experience her work at the Fourth Bridge Exhibition, take a look at her web space, and see some of the works she had on display.
Sorry!!!
Just a quick apology for the messy state of some of the pages in the blog, I’m still making some changes to it and as soon as I have more time will fix all the glitches.

I’m glad to announce the Fourth Bridge Exhibition opening was a success, thank you to everyone who made it, and made it happen. it would not have been the same without you. I’m specially thankful for all the friends and family; the majority of them who for the first time got the chance to see my work, that came to support me and all the other artists, words cannot express how much I appreciate your support.
But of course a special thanks goes out to my mother with whom all the work could not have been completed: despite my slow speed when working did not complain much, she was a patient model (at times).
