A young tourist studying a guide about Barcelona in the shadows of Ciutadella's Park. Barcelona (Spain). August 2010.
during the study weeks, it is hardly to find a spot in the library, since most of the students do their study there.
sometimes, i also just take a desk and do my works there. indeed, it's a lovely place (or heaven of knowledge?) for everyone in this university.
location: utrecht university's library
Esta es la razón por la que no me han visto por acá en estos días (aunque confieso haber vistos vuestras fotos, sin tiempo para comentarles pero el escape ideal entre asignaturas)
He pasado semanas entre el master, curso de contabilidad, clases de catalan. Necesito un hueco en mi agenda para fotografiar y liberar el estress.

Installation
Pattern Study is a large-scale textile collage that explores pattern, texture and line in space by looking closely at the structures found in textile-felts, knits and woven fabrics. This work will zoom in on these fibre constructions to explore their lines and patterns and will then expand the scale of these textile structures to the scale of architecture. Moving from systems that suggest disorder (the scribble of felted fabric) to systems based on the grid (woven fabric), this installation will move from disorder to order and back again.
Hanging in space, viewers will be invited to move through the various layers in this installation that hang overhead, where lines overlap and dissolve into each other.
This work finds its visuals in the structures of fabrics we wear and uses donated fabrics from the H&M Garment Collecting Program to create this large-scale work. This project attempts to shift the proportion of textiles to a monumental scale and draws attention to the fabrics that touch us every day. These fabrics are a resource and can be re-used and re-cycled. This project is a re-imagining of these interconnected and flexible systems.
Amanda McCavour is a Toronto-based artist who explores line in the context of embroidery, drawing and large-scale installation. Her work explores thread and fiber’s duality- it’s subtle quality versus it’s accumulative presence and it’s structural possibilities versus its fragility.

Red-bellied woodpeckers depend on dead trees for nesting. Recent studies have shown that these woodpeckers experienced low breeding due to cutting sites of dead trees; however, predators are still of main concern. The juvenile red-bellied woodpecker is ready to fledge at 24 to 26 days of age. Natal dispersal has been observed in juvenile red-bellied woodpeckers. The juvenile red-bellied woodpecker remains in its natal area for approximately 27 weeks after fledging. In some cases, the woodpecker may return to its natal area for breeding, depending on predation levels and food resources.
