EL GALLO

Hi

In this time I am very busy by teaching at the university and my workshop is still under construccion. Desafortunatly actualy I don t have nor place and time to make new creation. Except this reduce model I have made with a small slate plate about 15 cm high. It s a variation around the explozion theme. And it s looking like a ROOSTER, for this reason the title is EL GALLO.

EL ELEFANTE BLANCO / SCULPTURE / SOAKED PAPER AND POLYESTER

The name of this piece is EL ELEFANTE BLANCO | THE WHITE ELEPHANT in english, this is have the meaning of : unachieved thing, generally a building …

Well this one of the piece I am actually working on. It s in finishing phase. I just have to paint up to ten pass of super glossy epoxy white paint and then make the polishing. The polish have to step first the abrasive paper multipass from 200 to 1000 and then the polish to get final glossy and ultra fine touch finish. This is a lot of work due to the relativly complex topology of the sculpture and have to be made with a lot of precautions.

I hope this piece will be ready for the exhibition at the alliance francaise of Bogota the friday 13 of may.

PS. this piece was showed at the Alliance Francaise of Cartagena in 2010. But have suffered in the travel due to structural Brittleness. So I was in the obligation to use polyster resin for armoring the fragil parts : trunk and queue. You have to know that I am trying to using as less is possible synthetic material in my artwork. I think I have change the type of concept, process and design to complet with this parameter. Because actually it s still hard to get the form I have in my imagination without using synthetic material… Still have some work

Hello

Few days ago, as it s a very rainy, wet and warm weather with few friends we have been for a walk in the colombian country side. A blessed day we found a rare butterfly and much more natural stuffs, as very nice shaped psylocibe colombian magic mushrooms.

EN BUSCA DEL CUADRO / 1992 / David Consuegra

Bien otra vez, agrego una referencia a la biblioteca perdo la pdfoteca, uno bien bueno y muy difficil de tener lo en su posesion. Fue publicado a 2000 exemplarios, no se si tuvo re edicion, creo que no. Es un livro costoso a imprimir, creo que nunca mas va estar re edito, ojala que si, pero creo que no, quien sabe. De toda manera no importa … ahora usted lo puede tener en su pdfoteca. Ok la quqlidad no es perfecta, pero ya aguanta para una lectura correcta.

De que trata esta obra. Primero hablemos del autor, el maestro colombiano del diseño grafico: DAVID CONSUEGRA mas detalles suiguiendo el enlace. Trata de diseño, de arte, de composicion, de geometria yde pedagogia para alumnos en artes visuales. Son casos de como fue usado el cuadrado por la humanidad, es una compilacion de referencias osbre el uso y las problematica y soluciones que brinda la analisis del cuadro. He leido en un articulo en los archivos del periodico EL TIEMPO que hubo un proyecto de libro sobre el circulo de la parte del mismo autor, no se si nunca fue publicado…

SEMI ORGANIC SURFBOARD

Hi  I was in the Colombian atlantic coast in february, in Palomino donde Lucas. It s a marvelous place and a very good Kite and surf spot also. As I did not bring my surfboards from France, I was in the obligation to built one by myself. I dit it with what I found on the Beach…

As you can see I had used plastic to waterproofing the board. Well this not organic and very polluting action, that is not in my line of creation. Well I apologize because I was in need for a surf board to ride all that very nice waves. The I have use this artisanal technic recycling plastic bottle and others stuffs found on the shore. In a way it s in the line by processing garbage for making Art piece, but the fact that burning emit a lot dioxid carbonic gaz is bad. Ok you can tell me that is a very little gaz emission and the plastic garbage is also a pollution. Well it ´s true, but there´s no small emission there is just emission and eah one is enough. Plaid guilty.

NEVADO DEL TOLIMA FROM PAYANDE TOLIMA

Last week we were to one of our favorite place for picnic and river bathing at puente alegre san juan valley. In the road to go back  ibague few kilometers before entering payande. I saw this lenticular cloud, typical of the Nevado del Tolima summit. The distance between the point of view and the top is about 50km… I talk with a person who lives there and he tell me that at the the early sunrise, by clear day the view is awsome. I will try to get this one in the box …

Well of course we can only see the summit by the presence of lenticualr cloud, just in the center of the image. There is like a small cone cloud , it s there, the summit 5200 m highhhhh.
