I will not disturb this moment (poem)



Whatever thoughts I had
disappeared
when I watched the day
dance along the highway,
with a naked breast,
wearing the sea
around its neck
like a blue scarf
stitched with silver pearls

It is sunny. It is hot.
It feels like summer!

As I walk, I whistle.
I will not reason.
I will not disturb
this moment.

I will fly,
rise as high 
even if I perish

Soon I will wake
and one more time
realize 
I was just dreaming 

dreamed
within a dream
again


Just Another Day - Brian Eno

Just Another Day
Song by Brian Eno ‧ 2005

Oh, it's just another dayIt's just another day on earth
Oh, it's just another dayJust another dayIt's just another day on earth
Oh, it's just another day on earthIt's just another day on earth
One day, we will put it all behindWe'll say that was just another timeWe'll say that was just another day on earth
We'll say that was just another timeOne day, we will put it all behindWe'll say that was just another day on earth
Just another dayIt's just another dayOh, it's just another day on earth

Sueños

​Estoy en una reunión. Una chica está hablando de su último viaje, y hace mención de que el avión en el que viajo, tenía un “Gelato bar” - Inmediatamente la gente que está allí, pide mas detalles. 

Yo reflexiono en cómo cuando una persona da un detalle innecesario en una conversación sobre algún lujo, o privilegio la gente eso no lo considera “over sharing”.  

Otro sueño mucho más abstracto y difícil de describir, en donde me veía a mi misma en fragmentos, cada fragmento tenía una personalidad diferente.

Sara Teasdale

 Just came across this poet, Sara Teasdale... how come I knew nothing of her? 

(btw, another one that died by suicide...I cannot imagine, the burden of a soul, too large for a body). 



CHANGE 

REMEMBER me as I was then;

Turn from me now, but always see

The laughing shadowy girl who stood

At midnight by the flowering tree,

With eyes that love had made as bright

As the trembling stars of the summer night.

Turn from me now, but always hear

The muted laughter in the dew

Of that one year of youth we had,

The only youth we ever knew—

Turn from me now, or you will see

What other years have done to me.


"I Know The Stars"

I KNOW the stars by their names,

Aldebaran, Altair,

And I know the path they take

Up heaven's broad blue stair.

I know the secrets of men

By the look of their eyes,

Their gray thoughts, their strange thoughts

Have made me sad and wise.

But your eyes are dark to me

Though they seem to call and call—

I cannot tell if you love me

Or do not love me at all.

I know many things,

But the years come and go,

I shall die not knowing

The thing I long to know.


There will come soft rains (1920)

(War Time)

There will come soft rains and the smell of the ground,
And swallows circling with their shimmering sound;

And frogs in the pools singing at night,
And wild plum trees in tremulous white,

Robins will wear their feathery fire
Whistling their whims on a low fence-wire;

And not one will know of the war, not one
Will care at last when it is done.

Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree
If mankind perished utterly;

And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn,
Would scarcely know that we were gone.

A Fantasy

Her voice is like clear water
That drips upon a stone
In forests far and silent
Where Quiet plays alone.

Her thoughts are like the lotus
Abloom by sacred streams
Beneath the temple arches
Where Quiet sits and dreams.

Her kisses are the roses
That glow while dusk is deep
In Persian garden closes
Where Quiet falls asleep.

April

The roofs are shining from the rain.
The sparrows tritter as they fly,
And with a windy April grace
The little clouds go by.

Yet the back-yards are bare and brown
With only one unchanging tree—
I could not be so sure of Spring
Save that it sings in me.

Sueño

​Estoy en cuarto con varios niños, les estoy leyendo un cuento antes de dormir. 

En la ilustración del libro hay una niña con una cajita musical.

La historia que les leo, es de una niña que tiene a una de sus muñecas abandonada. 

La única forma que la muñeca no se siente sola, es porque hay una cajita musical. 

Pero de alguna forma la caja se abre, y de la caja sale volando un pajarito, que era el que cantaba adentro de la caja.

El pajarito, se va volando por la ventana y ya no regresa. 

En el dibujo, se ve a la muñeca con la caja vacía y muy triste. 

Los niños también se ponen tristes- y yo quiero o pienso que debo cambiar la historia. 

Pero yo también estoy triste porque el pajarito se fue.

Sueños

​Estoy en un barco, como en un crucero. 

Estoy caminando buscando algo, talvez la comida, no lo sé. 

Le pregunto a alguien del crew. 

En eso noto que todos los meseros están parados observando algo, están sonriendo. En el fondo escucho una voz de un hombre, que viene como de un video. 

La voz está hablando sobre el neón y moléculas, el paso del tiempo -es una clase de ciencia. 

Camino hacia donde están mirando los meseros, y veo un grupo de niños, y “Curioso” está allí, posando para una foto con todos los niños. Todos están sonriendo. El les acaba de dar clases de ciencia. 

Hay otra gente detrás, otros adultos, otros científicos. 

Es como un programa de caridad o de voluntarios donde les enseñan clases de ciencia a los niños. 

Pienso que lo mejor es no interrumpir y retirarme que no me vean. Camino al otro lado del barco, hay una vista espectacular del mar. La voz que está enseñando ciencia, se escucha por todo el barco. 

——

En otro sueño, estoy mirando como el video de una cámara de seguridad de una tienda. Un hombre ha robado una bebida. El clerk de la tienda lo pilla robando, y el ladrón se enoja y camina hasta la maquina registradora y comienza a sacar dinero, demostrando que no tiene miedo. 

De pronto es algo que está pasando en México. Estoy en Puerto Vallarta (en un barco?) y es Liz la que nos está mostrando el video.  Nos está contando cómo se están robando todo de las tiendas.

Sueños

​Estoy hablando de películas viejas con mi primo. El menciona una movie sobre hug school -yo veo las imágenes de la película. Es en un high school. Luego El menciona una película con gemelos. 

En ese momento veo a una nena, un toddler subirse a un carro de juguete pero me parece que esta cuesta abajo y me da miedo la nena se vaya a golpear. Corro a ayudarla. 

En otro sueño estoy en una cabaña no veo las caras de la gente, alguien me pregunta si estoy adelante o atrás. Estoy confundida porque yo estoy parada en medio de la cabaña y no se que contestar.

Sueños

​Es de noche. 

Estoy en camino al estudio, a pintar.  Voy como en un autobús de transporte público. Tengo todo los materiales conmigo en la mano.   

Hay otra chica, otra artista que también va al estudio a hacer algo. Algo por la que un señor, un curator está esperando. 

Cuando llego al estudio, el curator está allí, me pregunta por la otra artista. Le digo que quizás llegará más tarde, pero le digo que ella me dio un print de lo que va hacer. El toma el print, es como el negativo de una foto, lo pone en contra de luz, y lo “aprueba”. 

Yo lo sigo detrás. 

Subo las escaleras con todas mis cosas en la mano. Las pongo en la mesa, la puerta de atrás está abierta, estoy a punto de cerrarla, cuando el hombre, el curator me pide que le lleve una bolsa! 

Yo me enojo, porque siento que no está respetando mi espacio y mi tiempo que no estoy allí para servirle que he llegado a pintar.  Siento celos que le da más importancia o respeto a la otra chica que a mí.

Sueños

​me dormí escuchando cosas del universo que la sciences todavía no resuelve. Mis sueños se pusieron locos, algo que estoy hablando con una mujer sobre las galaxias- pero no recuerdo más. 

Algo que medio recuerdo, es que estaba tratando de encajar un pedazo de madera en una pared.

Día Productivo!

​Comencé segunda pintura en óleo! mucho mas rápido e intuitivo! 


Termine collage 

“Hacia un Camino de Flores” 


Bellísima Luna 


Sueños

​Soñé que caminaba por el patio de una casa, atrás habían unas escaleras. De pronto yo había habitado en esta casa por años y esa era la primera vez que notaba las escaleras. 

Las escaleras estaban como escondidas por la vegetación crecida. 

Subí al segundo nivel. Desde abajo parecía que todo era vegetación sobre crecida- pero al subir, vi que detrás se veía el océano. 

Pensé, que podría usar ese espacio para construir mi estudio allí.

Media Luna

Fotos tomadas de X - pero literalmente así fue como la luna se veía anoche. 

Espectacular!! 

Me hizo saltar del carro, pero no pude tomar ninguna foto con el teléfono. 


Sueños

​I am inside a huge warehouse, there is some training or the rehearsal of a play. 

There are people of different genders and ages, we are all waiting for the instructions. 

I wondered outside the warehouse for a look, there are soldiers and commotion, it looks dangerous, as if a war is about to start. 

I go back inside, and learned that while I was out, they played a video with the instructions. 

I now have different little packets of ice cream, and I started passing them around to people. 

I gave one packet of ice cream to a couple of ladies, one replied back:

“thanks, but we are not children” 

I replied: “and you say that proudly?” 

Someone laughed. 

Next I am talking with someone about “the instructions” they came in a form of  a song, which is a riddle for us to figure it out. 

The song is about a boy, who keeps doing the same thing over and over, like he is stuck in a loop.

Galaxia y Nebulosa Sketch

​sketch… 


Sueños

​I am inside a building with people. 

Outside there is a blizzard but the door is broken and doesn’t close completely. I am making an effort to fix it but is impossible. The  other people are behind me, near a huge window watching the blizzard. 

It does not feel cold inside, actually the heat from inside balances with the cold from outside. 

I am carrying a toddler, (maybe my niece) Her legs are uncovered, because is hot inside. I am walking with her in my arms, when suddenly she said ouch! I asked what happened, she pointed to her foot, tells me I accidentally scratched it when I moved. I get very concerned, I seethe scratch is just super minor. But I still grab her foot and kissed it, apologizing to her. 

Then some ladies are looking for their Gym instructor. Suddenly inside is like a huge gym complex. I joined them in their search.  

I found the instructor, he was teaching another class. The gym instructor’s body is strange. He is dressed in sporty clothes but he doesn’t have a fit body. His head seems to sink into his shoulders, his back is hunched and his legs are somewhat too skinny for the rest of his body. He also has a massive amount of hair. For some reason I made a note of this in my dream. Does not remind me of anyone I know.

ideas y Bocetos

 Cosas que he ido dejando para después, que mejor hacer antes que se me olviden por completo. La inspiración se interrumpió un poco porque me desvié hacia cosas más abstractas, y también por mi inseguridad con la técnica.

Voy a terminar lo que empecé primero, porque estoy comprometida a concluir las series para finales de Julio. Pero una vez que termine, tengo que retomar la inspiración, mirar hacia adentro, el subconsciente, de regreso al origen. Hay demasiado material allí.

He pensado que, podría comenzar a bocetar, y hacer dibujos pequeñitos. 

Bocetos: 

- La Nebulosa y la Galaxia  jugando el patio de mi casa

-pintura de mi abuela Gencha y Monseñor /Romero, inspirado en el mural del aeropuerto 

-La Iglesia Don de Rúa y el Circo ( no desde la perspectiva de mi papa, sino que algo mucho mas personal y sutil, en el fondo como los volcanes 






Light study

​Not the best, but I a was also working while drawing- so not really that focus. 

Need to move to canvas tonight! 

Paint faster, more emphasis on the light/shadow contrast than the details. 

Important to remember this! 

Sueños

​I am in a building, it appears I am playing a scavenger game with other people, strangers. 

Someone is giving us the instructions to follow We all dispersed to go look for things. I go up to a little room, there is someone already there looking through a window, I also wanted to look but the person took too long. 

Either the game ends or there is a break, I am going to my room to rest. 

The room is completely white, many beds, inside. Also many windows with beautiful views of an old city. It looks like I am in Italy. I am looking for the bed assigned to me. Hoping I am closer to the window. Someone from under the blankets pointed out to my bed. 

Suddenly music breaks. I realize then we are on top of the hotel restaurant, and is going to be very noisy.

Sueños

​I am in a classroom filled with students. I am about to take a test. I realized that there is a part of the test i didn’t study. Is about spirituality in general, somehow I feel I didn’t need to study for that. 

Still, I think that maybe I should read something before the test starts. 

I am looking inside my bag for the book and I don’t have it. I asked other students around if I can borrow theirs. 

One girl for whatever reason is reluctant.  I somehow get a hold a book. The writing is super small, I can’t read it. There are pages with illustrations. I decided to take photos of the book instead. 

Now, I am in line to talk to my teacher. He and I are friends, not sure how. Every one is on the line to ask about the test. Me and the teacher have a special relationship, again don’t know how; but the other students are aware of our friendship and are kind of jealous or are expecting some special treatment with me. ( Very similar to my philosophy teacher in high school, same thing. Perceiving that my classmates think we are romantically involved only because we share the same enthusiasm for the subject)  

I reached the teacher, he is a mix of my philosophy teacher and a mix of Curioso.  

One girl is super jealous (Jules) The moment she sees that I am about to talk to the teacher, she started making fun and turned around and showed us her behind. There was something written on it, but can’t remember what it was. 

The teacher super calmly started pointing out things on the book for me. 

My stepmother is also around, sort of talking badly of me with someone else. I feel everyone is against me, or they don’t want me to pass the test. 

I also asked another student a question about something I couldn’t read, she ignored me. 

I need to use the bathroom, and I go to a long hallway (i’ve seen this place before in my dreams) - I found the entrance. 

There is one room, with the toilets right next to each other; none of the toilets are flushed. Lots of the look nasty. Some of them with menstrual blood. I get angry and I said aloud: Is it hard to flush the toilets after you use them? 

I can’t remember what happened after that.

Sueños

Lo único que recuerdo es que estaba en la calle. Había una conmoción, como si un accidente acabara de ocurrir. Al parecer, un policía tropezó accidentalmente con una señora, y el bebé que ella llevaba cayó al suelo. El bebé lloraba, y otro policía regañaba al que había causado el accidente.

Luego me veo detrás de una van conducida por gente muy extraña. Para empezar, todos son extremadamente obesos y llevan un maquillaje exagerado, como de carnaval. Están persiguiendo a su mono, una de sus mascotas, que se ha escapado. Quieren atraparlo antes de que la policía lo haga.

En su intento por alcanzar al mono, manejan de forma bastante imprudente. Pienso que son los que están causando accidentes.

Esperando que termine el dia...

Finalmente me llegó el título para esta pintura: “Esperando que termine el día.” Me gusta el titulo en español, pero no se si en ingles suena igual de poetico: "Waiting for the day to end" "waiting for the night to come" .... tengo que pensar como traducirlo en ingles. 

"Esperando que termine el dia" Es precisamente lo que esta señora se sienta a hacer en esta esquina. Se sienta a esperar… a esperar que el día termine, para poder regresar al lugar que le prestan para dormir.


Esta foto la tomé ayer, y he notado que su rostro se ve más estresado, un poco más quemado por el sol. También me di cuenta de que tiene una escoba nueva y que ahora sus productos personales están detrás de ella: su jabón, sus cremas. Me da la impresión de que todos los días le piden que se levante y recoja sus cosas. Seguramente está desalojada, no tiene un hogar donde vivir, y quizá alguien le presta el piso de un negocio para pasar la noche. Pero al día siguiente tiene que recogerlo todo y salir de nuevo.








Sueños

​I am giving a power point presentation, something isn’t working but can’t remember what it was. 

I am somewhat stressed out about it. 

I am about to exit the place when I go trough one exit, I see a very large angry and aggressive dog, about to fight a small puddle doggie. I noticed the dog is on a leash, very short leash, but still can reach the dog or me. 

The small puppy isn’t scared is just playing. I decided to go through another exit, here is another dog, different type but equally large and aggressive. 

I see a lady on the other side, I asked her if she could pull the dog so I can exit. She tells me yes, but is not in a hurry to help me. 

——-

In another dream: 

I am in a laboratory. There is a skinny guy, sitting on a chair, but his head is wrapped in a pink cloth. The head looks enormous. I am told he is being “reprogrammed” I don’t know if he is a human being or an android. 

At this point I am talking to a guy who is like a scientist and he is sort of explaining how the reprogramming is being done, something about changing the chemistry in the brain. 

I can’t see the face of the guy who is talking to me. He is too tall for me to see it. Is like his head disappears in some sort of fog. 

I get a phone call from Juan. I want to immediately share everything that I am experiencing, but there is static I can’t hear anything. Whatever is going on the lab is affecting the frequency. 

I am about to leave, when I feel some sort of sadness for the guy with the head wrapped. I picked up his hand, and grabbed his finger. I think he feels it. I think he is human. I feel he is there because of no choice.

When I woke up I saw the image of a room filled with headless people, waiting to be reprogrammed.

the most extraordinary journey happens every night

word by word... 


 "Every night, you perform the most mysterious act in the universe you lie down, close your eyes, and then, you vanish. Not your body, Not your breath, but YOU, the one who thinks, plans, worries, remembers, simply disappears. 

And here is what will disturb you, you have absolutely no idea where you go. Tonight, when you surrender to sleep, you'll dissolve into something so profound, so utterly beyond your daily understanding. that if you truly grasp what happens, you'd never take consciousness for granted again. But we've been conditioned to treat this daily death and resurrection as ordinary. 

How fascinating that the most extraordinary journey you'll ever take happens every night and you've been sleep walking your entire life"

Sueños

​I am at some sort of company event. Is outdoors, there are tables and chairs, it might be a Christmas party. 

I go to a table and find a chair, and sit down. Suddenly I notice that no one is coming to sit with me at my table. I get up and realize that my co workers are all sitting at another table, together and having conversations etc. 

I think this is a good opportunity to escape and leave. I don’t want them to see me. I sneak out trying to hide among other people; when suddenly this other coworker spotted me, she is holding a gift, is the gift that I brought to the party. She wants to thank me for it. 

I somehow still managed to leave. As I am walking out, I wonder what excuse will I give them, as to why I left.  I ran into my ex coworker Norma, outside. She tells me that people overestimate those parties. Something like that. 

In another dream, I am back in El Salvador, my grandmother and grandpa are there, every one who is dead is still alive and acting as if nothing has happened.  

I am in the backyard under the trees, there are kids playing. I want to climb a tree but I know grandma gets scared. I see this delicious guayaba, I know I can go up and get it easily. But I don’t want to upset her.

Sueños

​Estoy en la casa de mi tío René, en el El  Salvador. Allí estoy tomando clases de seguro. 

Hay un salón lleno de gente. Yo estoy platicando con un señor ya mayor. Le estoy dando tips de cómo acordarse de cosas. 

En eso entra, Curioso. Es nuestro profesor. Llega con un abrigo negro, un back pack, y un suéter blanco, y una gorra. 

Se sienta a mostrarnos algo. Como el cerebro traduce los sonidos. De repente es su cabeza sola separada del cuerpo explicando. Es como un holograma. 

El señor que está conmigo se asustó y piensa que es brujería. Yo me río, y le digo que precisamente lo es. Solo que en camara lenta. 

Curioso está hablando de cómo los toddlers, los niños que apenas comienzan a hablar, balbucean sus palabras, que nadie más entiende pero la mamá y el papá si. 

Yo pregunto si es porque los padres han estado cerca del niño o es porque hay una conexión emocional. 

La clase termina, yo quiero quedarme sola con Curiosos, pero el señor no deja de hablar e interrumpir. 

Hay una mujer, rubia muy linda y voluptuosa, en bikini, acostada como posando para una foto. 

Como estoy escuchando estas palabras si no hay nadie hablando? osea no son voces, no hay nada fonético; sin embargo yo escucho lo que la gente dice en mis sueños y lo escribo ahora. 

Lo escrito no es 100% - es una interpretación. Yo recuerdo algunas cosas pero lo demás, lo que no me acuerdo, lo imagino para que tenga sentido. Aunque en el sueño nada tiene sentido.  

Pasaron muchas más cosas. Algo que me voy a mi casa, y me acuesto en mi cama. Están mis hermanas allí. Yo quiero estar completamente sola. Pero hay gente entrando y saliendo del cuarto y eso me enoja.

Beautiful Morning

Drops of rain on the windshield, a rainbow on the horizon, the streets, crisp and shining. 

Decided to go down the ocean and take a photo of the rainbow, I was a few minutes late for work

It was worth it. 

Although the photo makes no justice! 


Sueños

​First Dream: 

I am going up and down inside a building. The building is kind of abandoned and old. There are many stairs that look unsafe and doors that are broken.  

At different floors I find different people and scenarios. I can’t remember all of them. I do remember going inside of what it looks like an attorney’s office. And they are talking about someone being accused of either closing or not closing the door properly. As I keep moving, I go through a broken door, I opened it and it closed behind me, and I wonder if the same thing happened to the accused. 


In my other dream: I am in the yard of a house. Many people are there, there is a guy who is talking to me through my subconscious like he is talking on the phone. I realize that whatever is in his subconscious is mixing with mine. For example, there is this girl standing in front of me, and her blouse falls off, her breast is exposed. I tell the guy in my subconscious to stop doing that! I say it in a humorous way. I was kind of expecting something like this to happen. 

At the point, my little sister Celeste tells me she wants to go play with the neighbors’s girl. I go out to ask the neighbors but I find 3 dogs fighting outside. The guy in my subconscious tells me to change the dream, to do something different. 

I closed my eyes and started going inside of me. Someone is talking to me about space and the stars. When I opened my eyes, this boy, is sitting in front of me, watching me. He was the one telling me all these things. There is a girl, his girl sitting next to him, looking at a magazine. I started to the guy, and leaned forward and gave him a kiss in his lips. 

We both know his girlfriend is too distracted to notice. I still wonder if she saw us. I turned my head, the guy tells me to let it go and to keep dreaming.

Sueños

​I fell asleep studying insurance. Reading about: Talent Acquisition. 

I dreamt that the rules and structures for HR in general, were designed by women. And that men, had to learn how to navigate through them. 

I remember thinking: “that’s why all of them behave exactly the same. Every agency I worked for, they do and say the same things”. 

My dream was so bizarre. The HR rules were like an ocean filled with junk. The men were getting inside this ocean naked. Some of them had snorkeling devices. Men were getting injured all the time. 

 I remember one fat naked guy, got his penis bitten by something. People laughed as if it was funny. 

Another guy, brought his girlfriend, but couldn’t get any deeper into the ocean of junk, in part because he was afraid of putting her in danger.

The mental chatter

This constant chatter, going on. 
An endless stream of commentary, a narration, a conversation with yourself. about yourself. 
It never stops! 
This internal dialogue is so constant, so pervasive that most people don't even notice it anymore. 
Is like the hum of the refrigerator, that you only hear when someone points it out...

If is your mind, talking to itself, who is the talker and who is the listener? 
are there two of you in there? 
and if there are two, which one is the real you? 
the one doing the talking or the one listening to the talking?
This internal dialogue, 
this constant mental chatter, 
is at the root of almost all human suffering. 
It's the mechanism by which we create anxiety, worry, regret and most of of our psychological pain, and yet, we are so identified with it, that we think is who we really are. 

on and on, 
an endless stream of evaluation and judging
Planning and rehearsing...
Constantly projecting into the future, 
imagining scenarios, talking to people who are not there 
worrying about things that might happen, 
fantasizing about things that wish to happen... 
is constantly reminding you of who you are, your history. your pain, your likes and dislikes. what you are afraid, what you are able and not able to do. 
is like a propaganda machine, working tireless, to convince you that you are this particular character in this particular story. 

Why does the mind do all of this? what's the purpose of this endless chatter?
The mind believes that if it can think of things enough, plan enough, analyze them enough, it can control what happens. 
Is trying to make life safe, predictable, and manageable. 
Trying to avoid pain, and secure pleasure...

But here is the problem, IT DOES NOT WORK. 

all this thinking, planning, worry and analyzing and rehearsing, it does not give you any control. Things happen unexpectedly, people behave in ways you did not anticipate. Yet, the mind keeps on talking, keeps on trying, keeps on believing that if it just think a little harder, plan a little better, worry a little more throughly, it will achieve the control it seeks. 

An illusion, 
all this thinking 
is LIFE thinking about itself 
Life narrating itself, 
Life judging itself...

some thinking is necessary... 
practical thinking is focused. 
it has a specific purporse, 
is like using a tool, you use it when you needed. 
But the compulsive chatter is not practical, it has no purpose. 
is more like a broken record.  It becomes a habit, automatic. 

You are not your thoughts, the voice in you head is not you. 

if you are your thoughts, who is aware of your thoughts? 

Practical thinking arises when needed. 
The mental chatter without purpose, out of habit is ongoing. 

BE HERE NOW

Progresos

​Anoche iba solo a trabajar y en el collage. Pero no pude resistirme a hacer algo con esa pintura que comencé hace 3 años y me está costando trabajo resumir. Claramente perdí el camino. Nada de lo que me pasé horas y horas pintando cuidadosamente, me inspira ahora. 

Sentía una necesidad interna de hacer un cambio radical. La medio borré, pero dejé los rastros abajo de la otra, para ver si eso me ayuda visualmente a crear el efecto de dimensión que busco. 


Luego ya no me quedo mucho tiempo para el collage pero va avanzando: 


Sueños

​Estoy platicando con unas mujeres, sobre la historia de las máquinas de cocer. Ellas me cuentan cómo al principio, solo servían para un tipo de tela, porque la aguja era muy débil y se quebraba a cada rato. Como poco a poco las fueron haciendo mas fuertes o finas, se inventaron agujas para los diferentes tipos de tela. 

Hay algo sobre eso que, me hizo poner como ejemplo la política. Como que el sistema político como aguja, usando el mismo, para todos. Que por eso se sigue quebrando todo. Algo así. 


En otro sueño está lloviendo, es de noches, estoy en un lugar medio peligroso, parece una zona de Oakland. 

Estoy buscando como tomar el Bart de regreso a la ciudad. Me meto de carrera al tren. Igual sigue todo a oscuras. Pero allí me encuentro con mi amigo Curioso. Y estamos platicando de las estrellas. En eso salimos del tren y comenzamos a subir las escaleras hacia arriba. Yo me doy cuenta que ya no está lloviendo, que el cielo está cubierto de estrellas. El sigue hablando, y como que no se ha dado cuenta, yo le quiero señalar el cielo. 

En otro sueño, quiero rescatar a alguien, a una mujer. Pero la única forma de rescatarla es enseñándole a ella como liberarse, ella misma. Tiene que entender las claves que le mandó. 

Otra vez, se metió la política aquí, como que el sueño cambió ahora, eso de rescatar a la mujer es una historia corta que leí, y la estoy platicando con alguien. Y la uso como ejemplo de lo que le está pasando a Estados Unidos. 

A los Estadounidenses no se les puede salvar o rescatar, de afuera. Porque hay demasiada resistencia. Están convencidos de que lo saben y lo pueden todo,  recibir ayuda externa es aceptar que son incapaces o debiles. La única forma es enseñarles de forma que no se den cuenta como y que ellos mismos aprendan a cómo liberarse. Decía que en el ejemplo de la historia, la infiltración es por medio del subconsciente.

Aqui, huele a arte

asi como en un gimnasio todo huele a sudor, aqui, en el estudio huele a arte. 

completamente vacio, en la oscuridad, se me cruzo por la mente si sentiria miedo, no de lo de afuera, de eso jamas, estamos super protegidos, pero mas de algo que viene de adentro. Porque todos los lugares, tienen su energia. La energia de un gimnasio, no es la misma que la de una oficina, y asi un estudio de arte, donde diferentes artistas estan entrando y saliendo, y que utilizan el espacio unicamente para crear, la energia es increiblemente bella... y no se puede describir de una forma especifica, vibra en muchas frequencias.

Mis primeros materiales de arte!

con mi primer sueldo, salí corriendo a la tienda de arte, Diseño en antiguo cuzcatlán, donde me enamore del chico que me ayudo. No tenía los ojos azules, pero se parecía mucho a Frodo. Creo que yo también le gustaba, porque después nos comunicábamos con miradas. Yo no tenia ni idea de lo que queria comprar, el me pregunto que que me gustaba hacer. Le dije, me gusta dibujar… dibujo mucho! le dije. Y el me recomendo los materiales. Termine comprando exactamente estos. Lo se, porque los veia todos los dias. Me puse a dibujar de inmediato...
