On a taxi in Lima



This sketch from an taxi in Lima. It portraits the ¨Costa Verde¨, showing on a first plance the Rosa Nautica restaurante, and in the back the numerous buildings watching the ocean as comfortable espectators. My girlfriend secretly wishes she could own one of those condos, where she´ll the sea every single day of her life, while smoking a cigarette. She feels a deep connection with the sea. Maybe that´s why i sketched it today in the morning. Now that I see it, I should have colored the sea and not the sky. The empty white and the contrast with the colour blue takes your vision towards the mountain... to the land and not the ocean.

¨The boundairies between art and engeniering are only in our minds.¨
Teo Jensen, kinetic sculptor.
"Creation its not about the creators, but about those who see and experience the work after the artist. For the artist, the pleasure should exists in doing the work, but once it is done, and the need is temporarily satisfied, it is not about him anymore, its about you, the viewer. Bluntly said, the creator is an instrument used by the creation to find her way into this world. Then, she will exist through your experiences in infinite and unimaginable ways. What the artist had in mind, her intention, her purpose, is meaningless compared to her audience's, in whom the work lives forever."
