EAT-IT

1) A place that i like to eat is... I don't know, I think that I don't have one. I like to eat, but thw "where" is not a big deal for me, I use to eat in the U or in my home and that's it. Generally I eat fast and I don't think in the flavor of the things, when i sit for eat I like to take that short time to think things that during the day i don't think because i don't take that time.

2) Eat food in our days it's a big thing, because the fact of eat doesn't mean that it is for nourish. The offer of food transformed the essence of what food its for, now the term of luxury is in each corner of the city. I would like to have a restaurant of food, I think that is a great business fill the belly of rubbish of other people, knowing that they are knowing that is rubbish, sounds good, easy peasy, good job, good one.

3) When I have to eat something fast while I work or I play or I do something intense, i use to eat oats with yogurt, its fast and easy, so i could invest my time under the (my) order of the life.

Lucian Freud

My presentation will be about the paintings and personal appreciations about Lucian Freud.

 I ordered my presentation in two part, the first is about his biography, where did he studied, his perceptions about his own paintings and how he understand the act of create. The second part is about my own opinion of him, and what does mean his work for me. I've chosen a simple way to present this topic, because i want to keep the freshness of the exercise and don't fall in a deep point.

Well, I've chosen him because his work mean a lot in my process of learning, I've been following his painting since i left the school and until today I think that he is a great master and I feel lucky to have lived in this time of history.

Today he is considered one of the most important contemporary figurative artists, personally I can’t say something like that, because I don’t have a global seeing but I think that the way that he works, seeing and feeling a real model and then putting the oil paint in the canvas, is a real experience.

Random Post: Mapuche Culture

I've been interested about mapuche culture, because i think that it's important to remember where we are living. Long time ago this land and the most part of Chile was inhabited of our root culture.

The Mapuche culture is very rich in every meaning, they developed they own calendar based on his studies of astrology. They practice the medicine using herbs administrated by the machi, (who could be man or woman) kind of priest that know and preserve the knowledge of their ancestors. There are different ceremonies according to the purpose, for example the Nguillatun that is for claim for rain or the Machitun that is for cure a person. Personally I have been the experience of being in a Nguillatun when I was a kid and a I got drunk with mudai… just kidding.

The social organization is distributed in communities that are under the order of a Lonko, that is the person that make the important decisions.

Well, I had experiences that  I described, because my mother worked in a foundation that help communities and farmer families to improve their own products.
