<<To study or not to study>>

 Many times, I´ve thought about of to do postgraduate course, here on Chile as abroad, or maybe somewhere else. By example Spain, England or USA. The last time, I wanted study a master´s degree in philosophy or in Aesthetic, also a master´s degree in artistic production, for improvement my knowledges and abilities. However, for somethings of life, the wishes changed.

will I even want to study a postgraduate course? I Don´t know it, being honest. I simply lost my desires.

In this time when I liked study some master’s degree, I wanted to do it because I love study. But better We´ll do as if I have wishes to study postgraduate course, this way will be more interesting.

From the beginning: why I wanted study a master´s degree of philosophy? and where would be? I had thought on England, but my English language isn´t good. I´d seen a program of study about on analytical philosophy. another study program that I´d seen was about Aesthetic linked to visual art, this postgraduate was on Spain, exactly on Universidad de Barcelona and Valencia.

Also, I examined the study program of course relation with artistic production, as in chile as Spain. Why in Spain? because I speak and understand Spanish, also because is my native language. The reason for to do this course are many, between those are by example, it would be to do a continuity or logically related with my current studies, for this way introducing me to the world of art more efficiently.

However, for how the days are nowadays, I suppose that the better option is here in Chile, but I wouldn´t study with distance learning, alright has been enough to me this year…

POST 5

 

WHY DID YOU CHOOSE THIS CAREER?

When I was a child I dreamed of being a astronomer and seeing all-night stars, planets, galaxies, black holes, I dreamed, so as, with flying through the skies, or through of atoms, because I also wanted to be a elementary particle scientific. I love it. I read everything, every book which I could get into my hands, into my mind, about science, or Science-fiction, because when as a child I also wanted to be a ¿reader? or rather I wanted to write, and so as, may to make my own universe. Then I began interested me for other themes and knowledges areas. Even though, I ever had been interested in those themes of science and astronomy.

As well as,  when I had that to choose what career I must to study, in this time, I was decided in humanistic career, however I have studied in high school  a technical career as accountancy -I was very good as counter. But well, I chose between the career of Literature, philosophy and art, pedagogy or degree. And Justly those had been which I had studied. I guess I´m agreed with my choices, although not being profitable.

Study and work not easy had been, since the time for to do your activities or classwork. Moreover, when I was at third year in this career, rather, in second semester, I changed my specialty: from painting to sculpture. But I´m sure it was the best for me.

I´m convinced I couldn´t see myself in the mirror if I had a lot of money into my pockets and my soul crying desperate because it couldn´t have space and time for to do whatever him wont.

Why is art important to me?

perhaps I don´t confide in importance of art but drawing and writing has been in my life when I was a kid, a little boy. I remind drawing a toy´s car under the table also the adults told about things of adults. I suppose that I became to draw before to write. Though in school I was bad to do schoolwork, very bad to the handicraft, or rather lazy. To learn writing were very important, as much as drawing.

 

 I guess that the people, friends and family think I draws and paints very good, but I believe that I’m very creative and a sensible person, because I have developed in a several areas of arts, though the last time I have liked Cinema as much as to seek it as do it, as well as contemporary and conceptual sculpture.

 

in that regard I Love de modern and contemporary art, don´t only painting or traditional painting or sculpture, but rather visual art expressions, though don’t all, ever depend

 

John cage is one of my favorite artists. is a Artist that represents the search of the avant-garde of XX century: he dabbled in music, painting, drawing, writing, sculpture, poetry, even in the irony with the not-doing of Zen, even mushroom hunting, activity with which he used much of his time.

Into the peñaflor´s wetlands

 

Into the peñaflor´s wetlands

This winter while everybody in our country was trembling with fear for cause Covid-19, such as political imprudence, , bored and tired, annoyed, with two friends we found ourselves in the heart of wetlands that luckily we have here, that teems with night life, as ducks, Chilean frogs, or the cold river water running, the fire burning, the singing of nocturnal life, among others.

The picture to show exactly that: fire burning, sound of the night, even the sound boiling water or our laughter. However, there is something we can´t see: how have we a wood stove and a place where we sheltered of the cold and humid of night?

Simple: someone it built and left it all things abandoned (rather someone so bored, tired and annoyed like we, rather someone that needed a home for living while the world returned to normal -when will our world return to normal? he would´ve questioned, I guess.

Few minutes before this house were set on fire because while the wood stove was burning, the walls and wooden floors also was burning. Therefor we had that to improvise with things we found, such as metallic panels we used like floor and walls, very resistant to high temperature.

Was a wonderful night. We did include bread. At that time while I took the photo, we were preparing the water to drink “hierba mate”.

By the way, that are my foots. 

 <<Sophia>>

Could you suppose that my acoustic guitar has a name? Therefore yes, it has one, and its name is “Sophia”. Is one of my favourites technological devices. I got it when I go out of high school, because I wished to form a rock’s or blues band, but we began as duet with a friend, he was who taught me music. All it was fourteen years ago. “Sophia” has thus 14 years old.

I love to play it every day, stuff my soul, because when I’m sad or down it helps me to be quieter. I like to play blues, jazz, bossa-nova, rock, folk between other musical kind. Every day I use my guitar to play some song, for example, before yesterday I got a melody of The Rolling Stones, White Horses.

Nietzsche wrote about music:

<<What trifles constitute happiness! The sound of a bagpipe. Without music life would be a mistake. The German imagines even God as a songster>>

 

 

I really love to improvise with my guitar, because I forget the present time. I guess my life without “Sophia” wouldn’t to be the same: to play someone musical instrument to change the being.

Post 1: My autobiography

 

How can I to begin to talk, or however to write about myself? simply: to beginning.

I was born in Santiago de Chile, a beautiful country of Southamerica, where have occurred violation of human right the lastly year, after of <<Estallido Social>>.  I live in Peñaflor, an overflowing place for your climbs, floras, plantations, animals (like chilean swallow, your technical name is tachycineta leucopyga, also rana chilensis, between others) and people.

I studied also in Peñaflor, as primary as secondary school: Teresa de Calcuta School was home for eight years. After I went to Liceo, called República de Brasil Commercial High School, there I obtained a technical qualification as general accountant, only for to study something. But while this year I learned a lot of things: to readying to Cortázar, Rulfo, Borges, Jorge Manrique.

Then I studied to become a Spanish literature at Universidad de Chile, though only one year. Three years later, I entered to study Pedagogy Philosophy at Universidad de Santiago de Chile, USACH. I Don´t finished it either. And finally, bachelor’s in fine art at Universidad de chile, my dear Universidad. I hope finish it processes (only one half-yearly and I will Licentiate in fine art).

I don´t have brothers and sister. I am living with my mother, my grandmother, an uncle, crazy of mind, moreover a lot of pets: two dogs, one cat, ducks, and many hens and cooks. But “Toto”, is my dear dog: I love him.

I Like to run, to climb hills, ride my bike, to drink hierba mate with cedrón o mint, to drink beer with lemon too, to listen music, to read, to write, to draw, to talk with my friends.

I believe that I like simple things.
