This last photo is of an elaborate park bench in Antoni Gaudi's Park Guell in Barcelona. This elaborate bench, made in the medium of mosaic tiles formed from thousands of pieces of pottery, =glass and tiles and winding all through the garden was the first piece of art that I was drawn to because I feel that my life is a patch work of differing experiences all patched together to make a meandering whole. Like this bench, my life has a multitude of different periods, interests and focal points. My life goes forward, changing constantly, but always providing a place to rest for those I love!
This photo is truly amazing/beautiful! I liked the comparison you made with your life & the bench, being a patch work of different experiences. You seem to be very well traveled and to have had many interesting life experiences. I look forward to hearing more about these encounters throughout the semester.

I love this photo you put up! It is really pretty & intricate. I like how you incorporated your life into the photo. It really makes sense when you look at it.
ReplyDeleteI love Gaudi too! I love all the colors and textures he uses and especially how nothing he made could ever be duplicated. I love the uniqueness of his art and how everything he did makes me happy. I really want to visit Barcelona to see more of his work.
