ano novo, coisa velha

Marlene, minha caixa de Faber Castell de quando eu tinha 13 anos

new year, old stuff

Marlene, my Faber Castell's box from when I was 13

"Every man has a secret in him, many die without finding it, and will never find it because they are dead, it no longer exists, nor do they. I am dead and risen again with the jeweled key of my last spiritual casket. It is up to me now to open it in the absence of any borrowed impression, and its mystery will emanate in a sky of great beauty"

letter from Mallarmé to Aubanel, from July 16th 1866

ano novo, desenhos (bem) velhos

new year, (really) old drawings

From when I was 3...But they are powerful,aren't they? : )

Kings, princesses and super heroes to begin the year

último post sem nome de 2007 (#5)

Não gosto muito de Natal mas não pude deixar de postar sobre o fim deste ano que, para mim em particular, significou o início de pequenas realizações_ e transformações_ adiadas por muito tempo

Então, pra não cair na pieguice total de postar pombinhas, criancinhas, mar, fogos de artifício e outras redundâncias de ano-novo, resolvi pôr imagens de uma dessas pequenas realizações que citei, meu querido caderno nascido no Diário Gráfico do Alarcão _ainda cru, recém nascido mesmo

Um 2008 de paz para todos!

last 2007's no name post (#5)

I don't like Christmas so much but I could not leave posting about the end of this year which, particularly for me, meant the start of little achievements _and transformations_ that had been postponed for so long

So, aiming not to get into a total sloppy thing posting little pigeons, little children, sea, fireworks and other new year's redundancies, I've decided to take images of one of those little achievements I said about, my dear book born into Alarcão's Graphic Diary Workshop_ still crude, really newborn

A peaceful 2008 for all!

11 de dezembro - dia do arquiteto

Atrasado, eu sei. Não tive tempo...Sou arquiteta.
Bem, e já que estamos entre uma data e outra, posto a minha singela homenagem aos 100 anos de Niemeyer também. O croquizinho acima foi feito por ele depois de uma palestra na faculdade, acho que em 1996. Poucos felizardos tiveram a honra :)

Lá está ele na minha sala, e sinceramente não pensei que ele fosse ver o seu autor centenário. Vida Longa ao Oscar!

Architects Day

Late, I know. I had no time...I'm an architect.

Well since we are between both dates, I post my simple tribute to Niemeyer's 100º birthday too. The little sketch above was made by him after a lecture in the university,1996, I think. Few lucky ones had the honor : )

There it's in my living room, and sincerely I've never thought it could see its author being centenarian. Greetings to Oscar!

PS: The Architect Day was created after Architecture has became a regulated profession in Brazil, in December 11th, 1933.

Sherazade do Diário Gráfico

Na verdade é uma indiana, mas não importa, apareceu no meio do caos e imediatamente virou Sherazade pra mim.

Muita turbulência e muito calor no Marimbondo ontem , jatos de Colorjet e suor (argh) na pele.

Graphic Diary's Scheherazade

Actually it's an indian but it doesn't matter, it appeared from the chaos and immediately became Scheherazade to me.

Lot of turbulence and lot of warmth at Marimbondo Studio yesterday, jets of spray paint and sweat (argh) on skin.
