One of a number of works chosen by me as my contribution to a For Now group exhibition at the Create Centre Bristol from July 14th - August 8th 2014. The theme of the exhibition is 'State of Flux' and my works are inspired by biological forms mostly but not exclusively at the cellular level or below. They are intended to remind the viewer of the inner beauty of the architecture of Nature and also the fragility of the global ecology in the face of mass human intrusion.

Procesión del Viernes Santo. Semana Santa de Madridejos 2022.
Una de las mejores formas de conocer la historia de un pueblo es a través de sus imágenes; en ellas se conserva no sólo su realidad tangible, calles, plazas, monumentos, si no también sus costumbres, fiestas, tradiciones, lenguaje, indumentaria, gestos y miradas, que nos dicen sin palabras como se vivía, cuales eran sus esperanzas y temores, qué había en su pasado, qué esperaban del futuro. Uno de los objetivos más ambiciosos es recuperar y catalogar todo el material gráfico existente en nuestra familia desde 1.915, para después ponerlo a disposición de vosotros, que la historia volviera a sus protagonistas, para que no caigan en el olvido, y los que aún siguen con nosotros pudieran disfrutar con ello.

Symbolism of Karlskirche Doris Binder
The Karlskirche consists of a central rotunda with a dome, a put in front column construction in the form of a Greek temple, two high provided with pictures columns modeled on Trajan's Column in Rome and of two lateral gate pavilions. The provided with pictures columns represent Charles VI as wise and strong secular ruler, the two great pillars were created by Marder and Matielli. The columns are topped by golden eagles, symbolizing the two virtues of the Emperor - Fortitudo (valor) and Constantia (resistance). The two columns remind the two pillars before the temple in Jerusalem - Jakin and Boaz. However, the imaging of the two columns does not match the model of columns of Trajan in Rome, these ones telling acts of war, but relate the life story of St Borromeo. In the front of the Charles' church facing the open square the different symbols of history are interrelated: the Roman emperors Trajan and Augustus, the Temple of Solomon, St. Peter's in Rome, the Hagia Sophia, Charlemagne and the Empire of Charles V, by the skillfully used symbolism, the claim of the Habsburg to European dominance should be represented.
The plan of the church is, as in the Baroque typical, in the form of an ellipse. Once inside the Charles' church you immediately notice the great Baroque sculpture representing St Borromeo. At the base the four Latin Church Fathers are depicted. The interior of the Karlskirche is dominated by the powerful fresco in the oval dome space, created it was by the famous Baroque painter Johann Michael Rottmayr between 1725-1730. The fresco shows the Mother of God who represents the intercession of the Church Saint to avert the plague, surrounded the scene is of the cardinal virtues (faith, hope and love). In the left wing entrance there is the tomb for the Austrian poet Heinrich Joseph von Collin (17771-1811).
Inside the St. Charles Church there is a museum where the most valuable pieces are exhibited.
These include: the robes of St. Borromeo, a reliquary of gold and silver - a donation of Emperor Charles VI and a Rococo monstrance (1760) which contains a drop of blood of the saint. Thomas Aquinas.
The image of the architect, Fischer von Erlach, painted by Jakob of Schuppen, too is one of the church treasures.
The iconographic program of Karlskirche was written by Carl Gustav Haerus, by this the Saint Charles Borromeo should be connected to the imperial Founder.
Symbolik der Karlskirche Doris Binder
Die Karlskirche besteht aus einem zentralen Rundbau mit Kuppel, einem vorgestellten Säulenbau in griechischer Tempelform, zwei hohen bebilderten Säulen nach dem Vorbild der Trajanssäule in Rom und aus zwei seitlichen Tor Pavillions. Die bebilderten Säulen stellen Karl VI. als weisen und starken weltlichen Herrscher dar, die beiden großen Säulen wurden von Marder und Matielli geschaffen. Die Säulen sind durch goldene Adler gekrönt, welche die zwei Tugenden des Kaisers symbolisieren – fortitudo (Tapferkeit) und constantia (Beständigkeit). Die beiden Säulen erinnern an die beiden Säulen vor dem Tempel in Jerusalem – Jakin und Boas. Die Bebilderung der beiden Säulen entspricht jedoch nicht dem Vorbild der Trajanssäulen in Rom, welche Kriegstaten schilderten, sondern diese erzählen die Lebensgeschichte des Hl. Borromäus. In der Schaufront der Karlskirche verbinden sich die unterschiedlichsten Symbole der Geschichte zu einer Einheit – die römischen Kaiser Trajan und Augustus, den salomonischen Tempel, die Peterskirche in Rom, die Hagia Sophia, Karl den Großen und das Reich Karls V. – durch die gekonnt eingesetzte Symbolik sollte der Anspruch des Hauses Habsburg auf die europäische Vorherrschaft dargestellt werden.
Der Grundriss der Kirche ist, wie im Barock typisch, Elipsenförmig. Im Innenraum der Karlskirche fällt sofort die große Barockskulptur auf, welche den Hl. Borromäus darstellt. Am Sockel sind die vier lateinischen Kirchenväter abgebildet. Das Innere der Karlskirche wird durch das mächtige Fresko im ovalen Kuppelraum geprägt, geschaffen wurde es von dem bedeutenden Barockmaler Johann Michael Rottmayr zwischen 1725-1730. Das Fresko zeigt die Muttergottes, welche die Fürbitte des Kirchenheiligen um Abwendung der Pest darstellt, umgeben ist die Szene von den Kardinaltugenden (Glaube, Liebe und Hoffnung). Im linken Eingangsflügel befindet sich das Grabmal für den österreichischen Dichter Heinrich Joseph von Collin (17771-1811).
Im Inneren der Karlskirche gibt es ein Museum, in dem die wertvollsten Stücke ausgestellt werden.
Zu diesen zählen: die Gewänder des Hl. Borromäus, ein Reliquiar aus Gold und Silber – eine Stiftung Kaiser Karls VI. und eine Rokoko-Monstranz (ca. 1760), welche einen Blutstropfen des Heiligen enthält. Thomas von Aquin.
Auch das Abbild des Baumeisters, Fischer von Erlach, gemalt von Jakob von Schuppen zählt zu den Kirchenschätzen.
Das ikonographische Programm der Karlskirche wurde von Carl Gustav Haerus verfasst, durch dieses sollte der Heilige Karl Borromäus mit dem kaiserlichen Stifter verbunden werden.

Link to Cincinnati Zoo..............rhinoceros hornbill
The rhinoceros hornbill is named for the rhino horn-shaped casque on its beak, which may be used in fighting, to amplify its calls, for courtship displays, or just to knock down fruit for eating. Hornbills have very interesting nesting habits. The female lays her eggs within a tree cavity. She seals up the entrance with droppings to deter predators, except for a small slit through which the male provides food over the next few months. Once the hatchlings are old enough, the female emerges and helps the male bring them food until they are ready to fledge.
Hornbills are known for their loud, harsh calls.
Males feed females as part of their courtship, which lets her know he is a good provider.

Players At The Pumps is a partnership between Young's Pubs and Wooden Spoon, the children's charity of rugby. It takes the form of a three course meal and the chance to hang out with some of the big names in rugby. By 'hanging out' I mean they'll pull you a pint and also play host to an up-close-and-personal Q&A where you can ask them all sorts of stuff (oh exploitable!). As for who exactly, think Phil Vickery MBE, former England hooker Lee Mears, Andy Gomarsall MBE and Tim Stimpson (etc.). It's £35 per person and will be taking place at various Youngs' in the next few months.
Asides from 'the rugby thing' you also get a free pint of Youngs Bitter and some tea and coffee if so inclined. Plus a bucket of beers courtesy of Heineken. It is, essentially, a limitless supply of Heineken. The whole thing feels a bit like a toned down wedding or some kind of extended family social function in which a famous sportsperson has just shown up. I headed down to one of the first ones at the Alexander Pope in Strawberry Hill and took some photos for Wooden Spoon (since what they're doing there is pretty cool and all!). I would describe it as a 'rugby barbecue partyâ. As you can see, we hung out with Lee Mears, who is a pretty nice guy and seems to spend his time flying planes (though his website also has him listed as an executive coach).
As for the Alexander Pope itself, what a lovely place indeed. It feels halfway between a pub and a 'proper' hotel (which is I suppose what it is) - neither too fancy to be a pub nor too 'salty' to be a hotel. As for Youngs, the experience is consistent but I would like them to up their wine, spirits and cider game - the atmosphere is excellent but the choice is somewhat limited. Nevertheless it's always a fun time and they're doing a bloody good thing with Wooden Spoon indeed :)
Ok I lied. There is ONE panel on the back that isn't done. I ran out of glue :( Someday I will really finish it.
Ho aggiunto un effetto vignettatura con i preset di Lightorom, che secondo me la rende più paricolare...

Habe die Formen mit Eiern der Grösse L benutzt, wie es auf der Verpackung steht. Leider waren die deutschen L-Eier zu gross gewesen. Ich werde es noch mal mit M versuchen.
