 Looking at the mirror of the painter’s eyes, looking at the mirror of the writer’s mind. I have always thought that the best way of expressing an artistic feeling is including in your artwork a mirror, a more or less evident mirror.
Diego Velázquez used to organize his masterpieces around this idea. A mirror is in front of his Venus (National Gallery, London, 1647-51) and infinite mirrors are hidden in Las Meninas’s room (Museo del Prado, Madrid, 1656): one of these mirrors is in the spectator’s hand and some other mirrors… I am sure that they are flying around the spectator’s imagination, even if he has not got any sensibility. |

QUE ES EL ARTE PARA MÍ
Por Dorda Desde mi punto de vista el arte es una forma de expresión, una manera de comunicar a traves del lienzo y los pinceles aquellos estados emocionales que percibo. Supone una comunicación intuitiva, el medio para observar y expresar más allá de lo que aparece de forma consciente. |

Isabel del Río In Druidic culture, the culture of the Mother Nature, letters were known by the name of a tree which started with its same initial: for example, “duir” -our oak- was also the letter “D” and “saille” –our willow- was the letter “S”. They have five vowels and thirteen consonants and these last ones had magic meanings (the same as the tree they represent) which explain some roots of our current celebrations and beliefs. |
