"Bogotá como palimpsesto - Fenicia y La Concordia". Taller y exposición enero 2017 - Universidad de Los Andes, y LIA Laboratorio, Bogotá, Colombia.
This kind of battered presentation, for me, calls out to be photographed and cannot be resisted, even though it has no dumpsters, telephone poles, or port-a-johns..
When I think back about my immediate reaction to that redhead girl, it seems to spring from an appreciation of natural beauty. I mean the heart pleasure you get from looking at speckled leaves or the palimpsested bark of plane trees in Provence. There was something richly appealing to her color combination, the ginger snaps floating in the milk-white skin, the golden highlights in the strawberry hair. It was like autumn, looking at her. It was like driving up north to see the colors.
