I learned to sew!!!

Image
 This semester i had about six subjects, and it was a bit difficult. But no doubt my favorite was the Textile Treatments, i really like it because i'm learning and progressing in my sewing skills, i had never learned to sew or have knowledge of textiles, even when i've always wanted to design my own clothes, but i trust that by striving in this course i can do it. As a future stage designer, this subject is very practical and i feel that it serves me a lot, because in case the wardrobe managers are not available and the wardrobe has some fault, i will be able to order and maintain the workflow. And if i'm good enough,  could even take care of wardrobe areas myself. The content that has most interested me so far is that of sewing, because as i said before, i didn't know how to do it, and  now knowing how to sew i have the basis to begin to delve into the intervention of textiles. (Works of my first encounter with the needle, hahahaha)

An expert/person in your field that you admire

Not exactly a person, but i really like and admire the theater company La Llave Maestra, especially, Edurne Rankin y Alvaro Morales, who are part of this company. La Llave Maestra is a Spanish-Chilean Visual and Object Theater company founded in 2010, that was developed a surprising, surrealist and suggestive language around materiality, objects and their scenic relationship with the body and gesture. Me, like as a stage designer in progress, i admire this theater company and its designers for the way they manage to make visual theater so interesting and engaging for the audience that sees them.  One of his works that i liked the most, and i was excited by his costume and lighting design, was Pareidolia, this work made me question some terms of theatre design that are usually more rigid in limits, and even Alvaro and Edurne motivated me (thought a interview for course) to be more playful with my ways of seeing and understanding theatre in order to find really desired results.

A photograph and its story

 I like photographs, whenever there is a opportunity to take a pose for the camera, although it may not always come out well. Mostly i take photos with my friends, so, maybe, a thousand photos that we took only one or two come out somewhat decent, the other are just funny photos, but they certainly hide many feelings and stories. The photographs means for me to take moments and keep them as something very precious and that whenever i see it i can relive the feelings of that moment. We took this selfie with my best friend in the year 2019. It was a saturday, i was still in 4to medio, and i went to Preuniveritario in Melipilla on fridays and saturdays, but as i lived far away i was going to stay from friday ti sunday at my best friend's house. Since something in context, i remember that saturday after leaving my math class at Cepech, Ina (my bestie) went to pick me up at the preu and we went to eat at the mall. We ate a promotion of Pedro, Juan y Diego, obviously with a lar...
