This little guys are ready!!!

“ fire keepers, guardian spirits”
Store ware, bees wax

A participatory project. Where once they are all distributed around the globe we will collectively decide on an intention for the planet. And light them all up at the same time to create a network that holds that intention.

This project is based on the meditation experiments that happen in NY in the 70’s where they brought a group of meditators together and the crime descended for that period of time.

We can affect the collective, as does the collective affect us. Together we create stronger fields of intention and in my opinion this is highly needed atm.

If you want to participate send me a Dm and I will tell you how to purchase one or many of this cuties and instructions to participate ❤️

I’m building my website!!!
What a journey!

To decide how do I want to show up in the world, what do I stand for and who and how I want to connect with you person on the other side.

It feels like a micro cosmos of the big world. But here there is time and space to step back and inquiry. Do I want to create a “professional” artist white page to cater the idea of what an artist should be? And my belly fires up and says that is not who you are!!!

Then there is the risk and the fear that comes white stepping outside what one think should be to belong, to success. What if.....( fear, fear, fear) and I fail!!!?????

But
What if I stand for what is true for me today and follow my gut and trust?
Jump into the unknown 🔥

The site is still not ready but I will be sharing more about it and my values soon. And In a month I’m going live!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Emotional landscape
Stoneware and glaze 20x20cm

If we could step into sadness, loneliness, happiness, how would that landscape look like?

From that inquiry I allowed myself to create this abstract spaces for the imagination to land . As we observe this spaces we create a relationship with them. They become part of us and leave an imprint in our emotional and mental bodies.

Where can I feel that? How does that feel like? What does it awaken in my self?

Emotional landscapes #3

Prints available soon 🎉🎉🎉

I feel very proud of myself for following the impulse to get back into study again. This course I’m doing is really giving me the building blocks I didn’t have even after studying at uno in Spain.

I feel proud of myself for commuting to this desire to be an artist. For persevering through the uncomfortable parts of not knowing what to create or how, keep trusting and moving through.

I feel proud of what is coming through me. This paintings are getting yummier and yummier.

I’m grateful specially to for her encouragement, support and guidance ❤️
I love painting 🧑🏼‍🎨

I’m preparing a participatory project with this little guys in the background.

They are fire keepers. Guardian spirits. Once I complete the doing and firing process I will be pouring bees wax and they will become candles.

The project is based in the collective meditation experiment that happened in NY in the 70’s.

A group of people that get this little guys we will all start the flame together same day same time and set a collective intention for the planet.

If you are willing to participate stay tuned. I will be posting all the info on how to purchase them here.

I’m very excited!! And they are soooo cute 🥰

Emotional landscape #2
Acrylic on board 80x62cm

Core wounds are personal and collective at the same time, like ancient spirits that run through our consciousness.

So deep and so raw that to even look at them directly is too much, too painful.

That’s why I’m learning Hakomi. An embodiment practice based on Buddhism. I’m learning to hold my awareness in space while being connected with the pain but not so close that the emotional pain takes over and overwhelms my nervous system.

It is a new skill, and I’m finding it challenging. It is very different from other approaches. I will share more in other posts.

I want to send a hug, this are intense emotional times for many of us. Take care of yourself, reach out for support, call a friend, find a therapist. We are in this together ❤️

Burning through the fire of life.
It can be fu***ng uncomfortable, like I would rather go an numb out because I can feel it so intensely that it almost hurts.
But when the fire comes through and clarity shines on the other side, then I can feel my anchor towards myself.
Sending love to all of us fire warriors , the ones that go into life to live it as fully as we possibly can, even if it hurts, even if it burns. Because it is through the process that we grow, that I grow to hold myself closer and closer. Stronger and stronger. More connected to life.

“Emotional landscapes”

If we could inhabit the internal spaces as we do the external we could then be in them, observe them, distance or selves from them, in a word , relate with them.

Learn from them as we do learn from the physical reality. This way we will be able to see them for what they are, energetic landscapes to be felt. We don’t need to hold onto a mountain to know is there, we just know.

Is the inner world that calls us in to see ourselves from within.

Emotional space #01
Acrylic on board

Feeling into the space in my body where that emotion lives. Just feel into it, not to fix it or to solve it. Not to heal it or to understand it so I can grow.

Just to feel it.

Sometimes the wound is so big that to directly feel into it is too much, overwhelming.

I’m learning that I can also find a way to connect that is more indirect, it is through the space around. I can find rest there , feel at peace. Calm my nervous system. And then feel.

I’m learning a new approach to therapy called Hakomi. This series of paintings is inspired by it.

I still don’t fully get it, or master it. I get drawn into the pain or disconnected and scape away. It is a skill. And as much as it frustrates me, something deep knows it’s a valuable way to rest in the deep.

We are in lockdown here in Australia, and one of the biggest gift from this experience has been to find my own rhythm into going into the studio.

In “normal” life I got to school and then I work and my own rhythm gets structured around external commitments. But now I have space to tune in and choose when it feels right.

It is a fine balance because with out the external i find very easy to fall into eternal flow of rest, nature, inner processing and connecting with other ppl. But I know it is my choice to step up into being an artist, and it is my choice to put this in the centre.

The balance comes from inner flow and inner commitment. How can this two marry in harmony, without pushing each other but supporting each other.

How do you do it? I would love to know ❤️

Work in progress. Emotional landscapes. The spaces that hold the emotional body, there where joy and pain dance together in an eternal movement of polarities. There where the heart breaks and the tears flow. There where the heart dreams and breaths in hope. There where the feeling of being alive expands and contracts like ever before. The space we learn to hold. The space where we can grow.

Drawing with natural found elements. Soil and charcoal. Capturing time in the drawing process. I went out into the forest and play with what I found in the moment, no plan, no goal. Allowing, allowing, trusting, playing. I let my curiosity lead me into finding textures and experimenting with it. I felt sooooo free and open. And then the results are so pretty 😍

I am deeply grateful to be developing a relationship with nature. To be able to slow down. To drop into observing and noticing all the little sparks of beauty. The mind has nothing to solve here. Quiet.

Trusting the impulse is an art. The mind wants to control, while I’m doing this I’m thinking about what will I be doing then. It is crazy. Now I’m doing my best to follow the impulse when I finish a task stop and listen and follow what ever comes up. And this little guys are wanting to come up..... sooo cute!! 😍

I’m experimenting for a new project.

This one is about the space that I can create through breath and awareness to hold my emotions. Instead of analysing them, picking at them, and wanting them to change ( because they can be uncomfortable as f**k) I am learning to be in space with them

Like when at the beginning of a new venture I get this waves of fear that freeze me up. This activates a whole story line of defeat and failure that makes me even more frozen.

I have been sitting in the space with it. Also I did a kinesiology session to support my nervous system, and also imagining a future where I am painting and feeling the good stuff in it.

All this approaches are helping me to hold this emotions and accept them. I reckon is the fighting against ourselves that takes the energy away from what we want to do.
