Carla by Indra

No ano passado, durante a Lange Nach der Museen (longa noite dos museus) em Berlin, participei de um eventinho do The Big Draw Berlin, que acontecia concomitantemente. Esse eventinho era chamado "Speeding Drawing" e la fui eu, crente que iria produzir desenhos rapidos de observacao numa acao coletiva de rabiscar. Mas nao era.
Primeiro entrei e notei que havia 3 mesas, e em cada uma, uma plaquinha: "homens", "mulheres", "homens e mulheres". Houve uma certa confusao por parte das pessoas, a maioria nao sabia direito onde se alocar. Bem, me sentei na mesa das mulheres, pois sou menina. Depois de um tempo distribuiram papeis e fomos instruidos a desenhar quem estivesse na nossa frente. E ainda obter/incluir informacoes como signo, e-mail, aniversario, o que ele/ela havia comido no cafe da manha, etc. E ai percebi que sim, a mesa "mulheres" era para meninas, mas aquelas que gostavam de meninas. Como a "homens" era gay e a outra, hetero. Cai numa especie de clubinho de solteiros disfarcado de SketchCrawl.

Nos trocamos nossas "obras", e aqui esta o meu retrato feito pela Indra que, fosse eu lesbica, provavelmente teria me ganhado naquela noite. Porque a gente conhece gente bacana nas situacoes mais improvaveis :)

Assim que receber o retrato que eu fiz (dela, e se ela ainda o tiver), posto-o aqui. Last year, during the Lange Nacht der Museen (the long night of museums) in Berlin, I took part of a little event of The Big Draw Berlin, which happened concomitantly with that. This little event was called "Speed Drawing" and there I was, believing I would produce quick drawings by observing in a collective action of doodling. But it didn`t mean that. First I noticed there were 3 tables, and over each one, a signal: "men", "women", "men and women". There was some confusion from the people, most of us didn`t know where we should locate ourselves. Well, I sat at the women`s table because I`m a girl. After some time papers were distributed and we`re instructed to draw the person in front of us. And we still should get/include some infos like zodiac, e-mail, date of birth, what he/she had had as breakfast, etc. And then I noticed that, yes, the table "women" was intended for girls, but those who like girls. As well as the "men" was gay and the other, hetero. I had fell into a kind of little singles club disguised as SketchCrawl.

We exchanged our "masterpieces" and here is my portrait made by Indra who, if I was a lesbian, probably would have got me that night. Because we meet nice people in the most unlikely situations :)

As soon as I get her portrait I`ve done (if she still has it), I`ll post it here.
