The Journey Continues


Falta una semana para que continúe este experimento, Mi viaje me llevó a ti.

Como parte de mi práctica artística, sigo explorando mi desarraigo y mortalidad mientras intento encontrar respuestas y conectarme con otras personas con ideas afines.

La próxima serie de fotografías y recuerdos se publicarán en Santiago de Chile, Patagonia, Buenos Aires, Montevideo, y Río de Janeiro. 


It is one week until this experiment, My Journey Led Me To You, continues.

As a part of my art practice, I continue to explore my uprootedness and mortality while 
attempting to find answers and connect to other like-minded individuals.

The next series of photographs and memories will be relinquished in
Santiago, Chile, Patagonia, Buenos Aires, Montevideo, and 
Rio de Janeiro.

    Esta noche, al salir de mi taller noté que en la biblioteca azul había un pequeño marco ovalado que nunca había visto. Sé de memoria lo que hay en cada estante, ya que allí solamente están los libros de mis autores favoritos, de los que leí sus obras completas.
    Al acercarme, ví que contenía la foto en blanco y negro de un niño que sonreía tímidamente. Tomé el porta-retrato con sigilo, convencida de que estaba soñando. En la parte de atrás una tarjeta con la dirección de este blog me develó el misterio...
    Gracias Terry por dejarme este hermoso recuerdo! Tardé 28 horas y media desde que te fuiste para descubrirlo (a pesar de que prácticamente vivo en esta habitación de mi casa-taller). Y te agradezco aún más que me abrieras las puertas de tu blog. Feliz Viaje!

 Further reflexion on revisiting Mexico Emotions certainly ran high through my days spent in Mexico. Seems memories lurked around each corner. Some of the best days of my life were spent here. The 2 people I use tot ravel to Mexico with have both passed away .  I imaged them with me as I walked this vast  metropolis. One night me, Melindo, and our friend Leonel went to visit Tenampa. Tenampa was made famous being mentioned in various 1960's  songs by some of Mexico's most legendary singers. Tenampa is a mariachi bar located in Plaza Garibaldi. The last time I was in Plaza Garibaldi was with my friend Bill Bayes. "Bill and I at Plaza Garibaldi 2002" Bill owned Ansley Art and Frame in Atlanta and had framed my work for years. We quickly became friends.  I would sit for hours listening to his tales of travel and mischief. In 2002, we would meet in Mexico City for Christmas. He would show me his side of "D.F." and I would show him mine often putting him in a tax...

Hola Santiago. Santiago has been on my radar for decades for no apparent reason. I knew nothing about this place. It is just a place I needed to visit. Santiago ha estado en mi radar durante décadas sin razón aparente. No sabía nada de este lugar. Simplemente era un lugar que necesitaba visitar.  Me at 1 month   Last year while planning this trip, I learned someone I had known for years playing volleyball had moved to Santiago. Yet another reason to go. It was so great to see Drew again and delve into the past and share our love and happiness with  relocating to Latin America. I had not had an opportunity to have such a conversation.  Thank you Drew. El año pasado, mientras planeaba este viaje, me enteré de que alguien a quien conocía desde hacía años jugando al voleibol se había mudado a Santiago. Otra razón más para ir. Fue genial volver a ver a Drew y rememorar el pasado y compartir nuestro amor y felicidad al mudarnos a Latinoamérica. No había tenido la oportunid...

To the bottom of the world and heading back north We made it around the tip of South America and arrived at the Falkland Islands. Being so close to Antartica brought on unexpected feelings of being on the edge of earth and wanting to go further. I have never had a desire to visit Antartica before today. Perhaps it was all the refrigerator magnets and sweatshirts at all the shops of Ashuaia, Argentina. Somehow the idea of isolation and detachment has become more desirable.  Something to consider.  The Falkland Islands have been a land of wars and uprisings for generations. The strategic location has been coveted by many countries.  Port Stanley, a small town of 3,600 is her capitol and a simple place with more people than trees and many more penguins than people. This is their world. The simple architecture and a handful of gifts shops anxiously await the next cruise ship's arrival which doubles the population if only for a day. It was on a simple hillside that I left a ph...
