W.O.R.K.I.N.G yeah!

It's been a while since I last posted something but not because I didn't want to but because I haven't had the time to do it since there's been a few developments:

A hare, gift from Liebre Lunar.

1. I'm officially employed!! I'm happy to announce that I'm part of Liebre Lunar; Arts, Culture, and Artistic Education Research and Production Group. Liebre Lunar translates something like Lunar Hare or The Lunar Hare and it's an inspiring place with inspiring people.
We are incredibly busy trying to stick to a schedule in order to officially launch our website by the end of april so I'll be busy but keeping updates about it.

A Coptic binding book I made as a sample for my classes (and gift for Diana)

2. I've just finish giving bookbinding classes at my old uni to students from 2nd and 3rd year. A nerve wracking but great experience I hope to repeat someday soon. Great class too!

Detail of 2009 Some Books Are To Be Tasted catalogue published by The Expanded Page Research Cluster, UCA Maidstone

3. I have also started to work as an assitant for my BA tutor Diana Castellanos and her bookarts exhibition Some Books Are To Be Tasted... made in partnership with the UCA at Maidstone, UK and the Academy of Fine Arts at Katowice, Poland. The exhibition will be opening on the 27th of april at The Warehouse Art Gallery in Bogotá, Colombia. Lots of work to do but an exciting and amazing experience I'm looking forward to be working on.

In the meantime I'm worried about my own projects. I've created a CURRENT board of projects where I'm supposed to keep all the process and developments of books and personal works that are waiting to get done!

CURRENT PROJECTS board

Now, you can see a big frame of NOTHING IN PARTICULAR apart from the beautiful hare I was given by the "Lunar Team". I will be updating this poor frame soon and my projects will make come true, that's a promise to myself.
