Domingo de Fotografía


Considering the opportunity to write something in english, now that I’m about to have a test on proficiency, I thought I might as well write the post in what it could be considered my second language.

This week is about a series of photos taken in Madrid in summer of last year. The place is an art building located near the center of the city which name I could never learn or memorize. I found the main attractive of the building was it’s stairs. A repetition that gives rhythm to the architecture of the arts center it’s what caught my attention. Also, the people I went with.

If you’ve seen my previous posts, you’ll find yourself familiar with Gabo, kinder garten friend.

Friends at the stairs

Then there is his beloved Isa, a very nice girl who is very into ballet. There wasn’t then any surprise when we caught her looking at the dancing lessons classroom. Inspiring.

She is a ballet dancer too

So what other stuff could you find in these kind of centers?

As a closure I’d like to dedicate the last post photo to Lily, a friend that has put so many thoughts in my mind as of what art means and how to practice it, use it as a fun tool that has defined myself in the categories of photography. Thank you missy, a big hug for you.

I’m not as I which I were. I miss stuff. I miss care.

Domingo de Fotografía


Cheating, claro que hoy no es Domingo.

A mi no me sorprendieron las ciudades en sí. No hubo mucho que no hubiera visto en algún otro lado, nada que fuera totalmente único en una de las ciudades. Las ciudades no me sorprenden, es sólo curiosidad, intriga, sonrisas.

Todos los centros de las ciudades tienen historia, pero hay ciudades que los han modernizado, o que no se quedaron meramente con un centro, sino que hicieron explanadas grandes, parques, plazas, monumentos. Eso para mi es modernidad.

A mi lo que me impresionó no fue en sí la ciudad, ni la constitución de ella ni sus parques. Lo que me impresionó fue la cantidad de cosas que están ahí porque pueden estar, los dibujos, las pinturas, los edificios, los letreros.
