Introducing The Holy Beauty Project Vol. 1

Finally…the day has arrived. I’m shaking with excitement  while writing this post…here it is, the project I’ve been talking about for months now.

It’s the first volume of The Holy Beauty Project. You’ll be able to get a first glance of my most recent paintings, which I haven’t shown to anyone yet, while you check me dance around in a crazy videotaped photoshoot. Yes…you read it right: Painting + Photo + Video!!  :-)

SEE AND READ EVERYTHING ABOUT IT HERE!!!!

I was planning to launch the project by mid August, but I’m applying for an art call and the voting deadline is tomorrow. Please vote for me here!!! (Rate my portfolio).

Looking forward to your feedback :)

Win a print of Hoop Skirt!

1 June 2010

Do you want to win a signed limited edition print of Hoop Skirt? (image bellow) It’s easy! The only thing you have to do is send an e-mail to the address: rbb.prints@gmail.com with subject Hoop Skirt Print and your full name in the body. This print measures 40 x 30 cm and is printed on 325 gsm. 100% cotton rag FineArt Hahnemhüle paper, combined with Ultrachrome K3 pigment ink, assuring complete archival quality. Limited to an edition of 25.

From now on I’m personally taking charge of proofing, printing and shipping the reproductions of my paintings, because I’ve had enough with Internet censoring my work (last month I had another episode: a couple of my images, among which Hoop Skirt, were deleted -not filtered, but deleted- on Redbubble*). Same as with my photographs**, my painting prints will be sold in limited editions, signed and numbered. There will also be unlimited posters and postcards at lower prices.

But before I start selling anything, I’d like to celebrate this new feature by giving away a print of Hoop Skirt!! Send the e-mail now! The winner will be announced on June 15th.

*Art sharing site where I used to sell prints of my paintings.

**My photographs are currently available for sale as limited edition prints. For more details go here.

26 April 2010

It’s been a while since I haven’t posted about articles related to my work. But this month I’m thrilled and very honored to be on the 15th Anniversary issue of Shock magazine, with 14 other young personalities of my country, who were chosen because they are changing the image of Colombia with their vision and work. Some of them are: Juan Pablo Salazar (leader in the fight for disability rights), Simón Mejía (musician from Bomba Estéreo), Oscar Ruíz Navia (Director of the movie El vuelco del cangrejo), Sebastian Saavedra (Pilot), among others.

Bellow you can click to read the article (in Spanish). Go here for the English version.

Shock. April 2010.

Here are some other recent articles about my work (in Spanish):

Neon. 2nd edition. 2010 + Filmed interview

Arcadia. December 2009.

Go here for more articles/interviews. On another note, the 2010 galleries are finally up on the website, with my latest work. Check it out!

Comme des Filles, the art book

7 April 2010

Last January I met with Swedish artist Jonna Bergelin to work in an art book project inspired by the books On the Road by Jack Kerouac and Off the road by Carolyn Cassady. Most people have heard of only the first one. Actually, the length of the articles about the books on Wikipedia illustrates how unpopular is Off the road compared to On the road. However, both books tell two sides of the same story: the story of the Beat Generation, term that designated a group of adventurous writers inspired by jazz, poetry, drugs, sex, eastern religion, hedonism, and a general rejection of mainstream western values. Jack Kerouac is one of the writers, and he wrote his book as one of the bunch; Carolyn Cassady, on the contrary, was the wife and mother of 3 kids of another member, Neal Cassady; in her book she reveals the not-so-cool side of the story, and she breaks down the myth of the ‘wonderfully indomitable beatniks’.

Jonna designed the clothes, inspired by the the figure of Carolyn Cassady, and afterwards we met to create a series of photographs where I was the model. The final result is a book, titled Comme des Filles, that is currently being exhibited at Stockholm, Sweden Gallery Grafiska Sällskapet. As I promised on my Facebook, today I’m sharing with you more pictures from the series! I said I was going to show you the entire series but we’re now looking to possibly edit several copies of the book, and if I show you all the pics now I’d spoil the possibility of actually selling the book ;) hope you’ll forgive me! In the meantime, have a look at these:
