Land

I am grateful how everything had magically unfolded. After months of non-stop working in the studio, the possibility of having a workshop coinciding with the Bushwick open studios changed the rhythm of the summer and I had the opportunity to look at the work done.

This is one of the paintings from last year, one of the first Lands of Prayers. It looks to me now as a fundamental work between the ovals evolving in charcoal and the stream works of the year '19. I notice in this painting the intimacy of internal questions that are ravaging me and continue to intensify and focus: the artist as such and what a work of art is and from where arises, All in the silence of prayer.

Holy-days

Even if nothing ends or begins, the calendar do. Therefore, the feeling of closure and recapitulations, meetings and farewells appears.

Sitting quietly in the studio, reflecting on 2019, so far I can't give a word to describe it, the challenges, the rewards and the work done, everything. What I do know is all the motivation, encouragmentes and inmense help received from friends and family. My deepest gratitude to each and everyone of You for supporting this work, thank you,

Love,

Lia
