Este es el proceso para hacer mi último cuadro, tamaño 61×51 cm. Lo hice durante varios fines de semana y lo terminé hoy 17 de Julio, 2017. Fue muy agradable pintarlo, varias veces después de pintar sentí una sensación de estar flotando, que alivio, sobretodo porque la realidad 3D es a veces tan desagradable, pintar es lo que me mantiene cuerda y me permite seguir aquí y ahora disfrutando de la vida.
Here I show the process to make my last painting, size 61×51 cm. I did it during several weekends and finished it today July 17th, 2017. It was very nice to paint it, several times after painting I felt a feeling of floating, such a relief, especially because 3D reality can be sometimes so unpleasant, painting is Which keeps me sane and allows me to continue here and now enjoying life.
Así se llama mi última pintura, oleo sobre tela 61 x 50 cm terminado hoy 4 de junio del 2017. Le puse este nombre ya que un día mirando mi cuadro, se me ocurrió esta palabra, resonó en mi mente y me gustó. Cuando miré en wikipedia su significado y todo lo que implicaba, me sorprendió y realmente me llegó el mensaje y además el estilo del arte se parece al psicodelico. El bosquejo del cuadro lo hice cuando estaba en The Entrance, Australia durante mis vacaciones de verano el 2016, fueron unas hermosas y relajadas vacaciones, a la orilla del mar. Aquí está textual lo que dice wikipedia:
“Psicodelia es la adaptación al español del inglés psychedelia, un neologismo formado a partir de las palabras griegas ψυχή, “alma”, y δήλομαι, “manifestar”. La palabra psicodélico fue inventada por el psicólogo británico Humphry Osmond y significa “que manifiesta el alma”.
Ajustándose a esa definición, todos los esfuerzos por proyectar el mundo interior de la psique pueden ser considerados, en un sentido amplio, “psicodélicos”. Sin embargo, cuando se habla de psicodelia suele aludirse a una modalidad artística muy concreta: el arte psicodélico, sobre todo pictórico y musical, que se desarrolló a partir de la segunda mitad del siglo XX. Este tipo de arte se caracteriza por evocar las vivencias propias de la experiencia psicodélica: sinestesia, alteración de la percepción del tiempo y del sentido de la identidad, empatía, etc.
La psicodelia es uno de los componentes más notorios de la contracultura, pues ofrece una vía de escape de los límites impuestos a la conciencia y a la vida diaria por el sistema dominante.”
This is the name of my last painting, oil on canvas 61 x 50 cm finished today June 4, 2017. I named it psychedelia because one day looking at my painting, I came up with this word, it resonated in my mind and I liked it. When I looked at wikipedia its meaning and everything that involved, I was surprised and the message really got to me and also the style of art is like psychedelic. I made the sketch of the canvas when I was at The Entrance, Australia during my summer vacation in 2016, it was a beautiful and relaxed holiday, by the sea. Here is what wikipedia says:
“The term “psychedelic” is derived from the Ancient Greek words psychē (ψυχή, “soul”) and dēloun (δηλοῦν, “to make visible, to reveal”), translating to “soul-revealing”.The term is also used to describe a style of psychedelic artwork and psychedelic music. Psychedelic art and music typically try to recreate or reflect the experience of altered consciousness.
A psychedelic experience is characterized by the striking perception of aspects of one’s mind previously unknown, or by the creative exuberance of the mind liberated from its ostensibly ordinary fetters. Psychedelic states are an array of experiences including changes of perception such as hallucinations, synesthesia, altered states of awareness or focused consciousness, variation in thought patterns, trance or hypnotic states, mystical states, and other mind alterations. These processes can lead some people to experience changes in mental operation defining their self-identity (whether in momentary acuity or chronic development) different enough from their previous normal state that it can excite feelings of newly formed understanding such as revelation, enlightenment, confusion, and psychosis.”
