Joya: AiR / Aurora Rosales / ARG

The silence,
the magnificent landscape,
the song of humming bees,
the smell of almond trees’s flowers,
the gradient of the sunset,
the heart warming dinners,
the talks before bedtime,
the goodbyes,
the distance to everything else,
the close connection to myself,
the writer that has a fascination with snakes,
the dancer that makes paper out of bamboo,
the sculptor that transforms the world,
the dog that wants to be a friend,
the solar energy,
the walks that refills you with energy and new ideas,
the subjective experience of time.
Joya: AiR was a before and after experience, where every little bit contributed to deeply connecting with my practice and myself.
I experimented with natural pigments and materials such as recycled paper, charcoal made from willow branches, turmeric, coffee and skimmed milk. I’m coming back to my studio full of sketches and new ideas.
