I posted a photo of an artwork made with scraps of wood, wrappings of alfajores (typical biscuit-like treats filled with toffee and covered in chocolate) which I called ¨Recuerdos de Buenos Aires / Remembrances of Buenos Aires¨ which is a city where I lived when I was a little girl and two students of art at the Universidad Monteávila saw it and invited me to participate in their graduation exhibition. They gave me specific instructions for the artwork. I was to use recycled materials. So I began combing the streets near where I live for discarded junk food and candy wrappings and soda and beer and energy drink cans. I sanitized them with bleach and soapy water and stuck them onto an mdf board and sprayed paint Jackson Pollock style. I am posting here the original and then took a photo and transformed it with my favorite software. What do you think of the result?

Another of my obsessions is with flowers, but not just any flower: flowers photographed up close and blurred to render them abstract. I had gone to an orchid show and the camera was acting up and could not focus so several of the photos came out blurred but still, I saw beauty in these photos and decided not to erase them and instead to pass them through the software I got thanks to the cd reader in my laptop not working and my sister taking me to get an external cd reader... here are the results. The dyptych entitled ¨White orchid, Black orchid¨ are so beautiful... They are printed on fabric at a size of 100 x 100 x 4 cm and have a mahogany frame. I sent them to the 67th Salon Arturo Michelena, the most prestigious art salon in Venezuela but they were not accepted and were returned with the frame in poor condition. I was so annoyed! Artists make all sorts of sacrifices to continue producing art and the transportation is a considerable fee and for them to be returned damaged is so disrespectful! Every year I say to myself that I shall not send another artwork to any art salon... and then in the course of the year I change my mind...
