Magnets
I bought these calavera magnets for the Day of the Dead. After the festivities, I almost removed them, but decided to play with them instead.
Now, whenever I need a break, I stand in front of the fridge and wonder if there's another way to arrange them.
I share this with you, because this is how I create my jewelry. I look at what I've just made, and ask: what else can I do with this?
Taller Experimental de Cerámica
I recently visited the Taller Experimental de Cerámica, which is a few blocks from my home in Coyoacán.
The studio was founded in the 1960's by stoneware pioneer, Alberto Díaz de Cossío. If you have been to Mexico City, and love great Japanse food, you have probably seen their dinnerware in some of the best restaurants in town.
As well as their utilitarian production, Alberto and his daughter, Adriana, create unique art works which are also for sale in their studio shop. Each year, they celebrate an open house with friends, quesadillas, and mezcal.
Diego Rivera's Studio
I took these pictures of Diego Rivera's home and studio a few years ago. It is one of my favorite buildings in Mexico City. The day I visited, the property had been recently renovated and looked particularly striking.
The two buildings were designed by Juan O'Gorman in the 1930's. The white and orange structure was Diego's, and the smaller blue house was Frida's. They lived and worked here for six years, after their three-year stay in the US.
When Frida's father passed away, she returned to live in her childhood home, the now famous Blue House, in Coyoacán.
Diego painted most of his easel paintings in this studio, and he lived here until his death in 1957.
The property is now a museum. You can see pictures of what it looks like on the inside, on the museum's website.
Thank you!
The best gift life brings me, is the opportunity to create from a space of love and peace. You are part of this gift, which I cherish dearly.
Thank you for the love you send my way, and for encouraging my daily exploration of forms that embody my deepest dreams.
I could not imagine a better path, and I send you my heartfelt gratitude for allowing me to wander and bring treasures from my inner journey.
May life bless you every minute with joy, beauty, and inspiration!
