THE ANSWER IS BLOWING IN THE WIND

From your personal experimentation with the theme “wind” formulates a concept asking questions. For example: What is wind to you? What are its strengths? Like or scares you? How does it sound? How does it feel? How does it smell? How you behave when you are not there? How many words or terms exist for wind? … Why this topic is interesting for you? What is your concept? How do you translate the concept to an experimental source? What you are going to design?

Fragments . Francesca Valdivieso

The wind has the particularity to change those things that are on their way. Depending on your strength, direction and manner in which this generates different responses to the material on which it is exercised.

The wind is taken, then as destructive force that draws us to the end. It also seeks a detainee to the remains of what was a waste of a perfect past that now lies destroyed and devastated look.

Debris and dust, brick and wood. Unimaginable speeds that change and destroy everything in its path. Turns violent bursting, break, break.
And what they leave is so beautiful that it hurts.

Juan Diego Santos

The wind is a natural element that affects different ways entire ecosystems and therefore life these. The original definition of wind is “offset differences in atmospheric pressure between two points.” That is to say, is the response to a change between two air chambers with different pressures. In this way the wind can be seen as a game changer. It is equally important to note that the wind is causing many changes in nature. Erosion (change in the shapes of the stones) happens mainly by the existence of drafts that hit the rocks. With this change occur in different ways mountains, soils, valleys, among other places tide nature. It should be kept in mind also that the wind does not just change elements in nature but also in human life and in daily life. Measure the strength, direction and speed of these air currents is important for dimensioning building structures such as silos, large sheds, high buildings, etc. It is also vital for an alternative energy source that uses the human being; wind farms.
The wind of change is born and produces change, however it is invisible to the human eye element and therefore not routinely perceive the change that this can generate. This change shows the connection between two distant elements. Elaborating on the concept “wind” We can give us that it is a change that demonstrates a connection between everything existing, though invisible to the human being. The human senses limit you to see things that connect with nature in their daily lives, although this connection may affect your whole life. The wind force is uncontrollable.

The wind is old and keeps moments and memories . Angelica Lopez

The wind is old and keeps moments and memories with a simple breeze can make me remember past stories, places and smells of people saved and the wind took, but occasionally comes, blows and gets to go more .

From tiny I had the ability to store many times, faces, places and memories in my head with ease, I have what “good memory” is said, but my memory is very visual and sensitive to the smell. Whenever I try to remember some of the first thing I remember is how it looked or smelled. And the wind plays an important role in this, he is responsible for carrying those smells and those images in my head, how they smelled leaves favorite book of my grandfather or my grandmother and her perfume so characteristic. How I loved playing hours in the park but when was the smell of wet asphalt came running into the house, how I played with my brothers when we all lived in the same house and we scared them when the wind shut a door. The wind was present in each of these moments, is and always has been a witness of events that eventually become memories or memories.

Compass Volatile . Daniela Baena Vargas

Impulse and guidance, the wind is the memory of the earth and their ancestors. Since ancient times the wind was the most important for travelers and sailors tool. They left the lands known to go in search of new and exciting experiences, always deposited in this master all his confidence. Travelers and sailors know that the wind, storm and wind are your faithful companions and that this great sage who is always present but not seen, is your guide and compass in difficult times.

The wind is not only the engine thrust and candles for adventurers reach their destination and fulfill their dreams, is also a teacher who holds many lessons. Join boaters on their journey which is not always easy, gentle tide makes the best sailors and travelers; is when the tide rises by the force with which the wind blows, travelers to prove themselves and that this great master is manifested, for keeping memories can become great learning.

Strong blows on a cold night, the gentle breeze against a sunset at sea are just dumb and poems that are written in the gales loaded with dry leaves that speak to the traveling spirit within the heart of every individual words. We invite in a very subtle way not to lose or forget our essence, nomadic and adventurous, you need to leave the mainland and go looking for the teachings of the sea and wind, not to lose its vitality. Wind is the compass of the heart that is always there in a very special way and light to show us the way to our dreams.

David Muñoz

The wind blows hard! On the day and sunny. It is a current that takes everything he sees in its path, and only left standing heavier or? xed things down that you can not carry. However, people feel that the wind pushes, moves her hair and beat her clothes ago.

Wind closes doors and windows, tiles tomb, moves the branches of trees with force drags trash, leaves, sand, clothing, everything is reached by its power! His strength rages over around noon, and keeps warning people that do not want the wind caught and carried her things away. However, it is intermittent, and let calm at times places that usually goes through.

But always come back! Arrival is seen with the sound of pastures or leaning trees and no resistance in its path. Indoors sound re? Ects how to brew reaches inside, and windows vibrated and sometimes frightening the inhabitants with slamming doors and locks out other ambient sounds. When the sun starts to walk away and leave, so does the wind, sending its last breaths and gradually disappearing, leaving calm and quiet place where it moves, leaving the silence predominate at night. The wind will not return until the next day, the sun returns to the heavens and, again, the current return with force. ¿No es correcto?

Polipolaridad . Juan Diego Prieto

The wind as a change agent, is a force that is always in relationship with us and our environment. It is a subject that, although before the eye is not visible, you have the ability to manipulate at will the perceptible world and the objects that compose it, attributing thus its own character, despite having no life, it does a temper. Be a gentle breeze, a gust or a squall, the Wind speaks and expresses us in many colors and is in the diversity of these ways which may occur where lies its temperamental and moody character. It is based on the study of the phenomenon of wind and how it is constantly changing, the concept of Polipolaridad is constructed as a metaphorical construction between the emotions of a person with the possible states of the wind. Just as every person can feel and express anger, happiness or sadness likewise you can do this phenomenon, either through a change or variation of its strength, direction or speed. Wind is polipar, in the sense that it has a split consciousness, and this makes irreverent and opinionated, manifesting itself at will from different nuances. It is this changing and unstable feature that makes this item a representation of absolute freedom.

Which color is the wind? . Alejandra Osorio.

I was always told that the wind was special because you could feel but not see. But I never believed it. For me the wind is not invisible, because I can see through all colors, in different shapes and materials. The wind is perceived feels and shows colors differently. Moving the sea lets us see the blue water reflecting the color of heaven, in summer rises sand beaches and see the yellow color that often penetrates to our eyes, in the see skies riskier being moved by the wind in their gliders cheering multicolored blue skies, in the spring we host of vivid colors that inspire us and bring us aromas of flowers reminding us that have life that winter is over. In autumn brings the colors of the leaves in green, yellow and orange.

In winter the color becomes monotonous but note that wind is agent to bring the target into pieces as shown in the long-awaited snowfall. And when we see white clouds being transported from one place to another at the whim of the wind understand that wind is the protagonist of which is formed in the heavens to create storm clouds that makes colors in shades of gray from becoming being helped by the colors of the rays even acclimate the landscape with their dark sounds and often threatening to form loºs tornadoes. In the storms we as the green of trees are moved violently and streets colors umbrellas that resist its force, with their designs in blues, yellows, reds used by women and the more conservative worn by men in black, gray and cafes to run for cover as the wind moves her dresses and outfits making colors run through the streets trying to escape the cold and water. This is why the wind can be seen through the colors and shapes, which are those that give visibility behind its transparency. The wind has only one color, the wind takes the color of everything around him and is so visible. The wind is multicolored.

Sofia Mejia

“The wind is a stream of air produced in the atmosphere by the meeting of different pressures in different areas.” Despite being transparent, the wind is not invisible but hard to decipher since from its very definition variability and combination evidenced elements. This character has a dual personality can be hateful or loving, a faint breeze or a heavy storm, fearful or tranquilizer, constant or variable, lasting or ephemeral, beautiful or ugly, technological advances help or destroy buildings, gentle or aggressive, silent or noisy. Every day we witness or evidence different facets of the wind. These faces can take one or another personality depending on the emotions of the person who is witnessing the encounter with the air stream.

Other ways to say duality are dimorphic, dualism, duplication, repetition and reiteration. The duality can be projected in typography essentially creating contrasts. One way is to divide the letters in two and make each other half as half black half white, half italic serif half, half water half fire, etc. Another option is to insert each letter of the alphabet between two opposing materials, contrasting colors, or opposing textures. Also, you can make combinations with the thickness and levels of the letter. I’ll design a font that project this duality by combining two opposing elements.

After month of preparing finally we exhibit the projects at KunstStation Sankt Peter in Cologne, Germany. Here some impressions of the event…

NAMES IN SILENCE

Carolina Perez

This linguistic richness is evident in a family of 44 members, which one of them is deaf and introduces with his knowledge a unique and exceptional way of give a visual and silent name to each member, collecting their personal and physical characteristics. In that way a sign is attributed to each person that in seconds summarizes what defines it, making a clear recognition within the family.

HINTER GITTERN

Carolina Arciniegas

Windows reflect public space, while enabling to peek into the stories contained inside. And there’s one thing unique to Bogotá windows: the iron bars in front of them. Beautifully designed, handcrafted, decorated, full of creativity. In a huge and dangerous city they protect and honor the meaning of ‘home’. But bars also awake the impression of imprisonment. They secure, but they lock you inside, reenforcing the concept of a dangerous outside. Pretty prisons, but prisons nonetheless. These are 45 iron bar design found in different parts of Bogotá.

DAY STATUES

Miguel Rodriguez

These 45 symbols are based on the mood I have when I’m sitting in my workspace, either studying, working or playing, its a very personal aspect of my life because most of the time I’m in some of these three activities. Each symbol has a literal part and a emotional part, this is represented by the lines expressing the imaginary that are my thoughts, and the real, that is my body.

VISUAL SLANG

Sergio Mantilla

“VISUAL SLANG”  born from the search and investigation of characteristic expressions of my country. Allows the graphical display of statements and expressions generated from the union of words which blends the literal meaning of the same and its double meaning. The project’s main interest lies in the need to show Bogota and Colombia from a unique perspective from adaptations that we, ourselves have made our language. My images aim to show the spontaneous and the funny slang of my country.

Brief: Take a personal object of your own, describe it how it looks like and how it feels like. Find a concept behind your object and transform it to a font which is handmade.

Este objeto es frágil y exótico, se siente agradable al cogerlo por que sus formas curvas se adaptan a la forma de tu mano. Este objeto genera mucha curiosidad por que esta cargado de detalles. Su cuerpo es de vidrio lo que le da un color, textura e impacto singular pues aunque es de un color vivo su material de vidrio permite que deje pasar la luz generando unas sombras particulares con el mismo color del vidrio. Sus detalles en oro le agregan una cantidad de exuberancia, misticismo y elegancia a la pieza pues son muy propios este tipo de detalles con el imaginario visual del mediterráneo. La forma de aplicación de los detalles en oro es en forma de acentos distribuidos en aros a lo largo de la botella con uno especial en el centro que contiene una franja ma curvas y colores pero sobre todo pareciera ser una mujer exótica, misteriosa y seductora, con secretos escondidos y aunque físicamente frágil, su fuerza se concentra en su encanto visual mezclada con los aromas que contiene pues los usa a su favor. Este frasco fue un regalo de un viaje de mis papas y siempre me hace pensar en ese lugar místico que no conozco pero que asocio con movimiento, con un ritmo de vida rápido pero sincronizado como la danza, de hecho lo liviano que es y su forma punteada genera también esta sensación de movimiento y velocidad sincronizada. Para concluir esta botella de vidrio se siente muy especial al usarla, no es lo mismo tener perfume en una botella comercial que tenerlo en este frasco.

Del mal las flores son. Son recuerdos. Flores que atrapan en su esencia efímera una nostalgia por aquello que ha pasado y que ha dejado una huella. Es un recuerdo materializado. Cada una de las flores constituye parte de mi memoria, de un momento de mi vida. MЗs que una simple flor es un objeto que en su esencia posee un valor sentimental que me hace recordar que a pesar de lo que haya pasado aquТ estoy. Así como los recuerdos, es frágil y necesita ser conservado para poder permanecer vivo. No puedo exponerlo a vientos fuertes, no resiste movimientos bruscos, no se puede doblar y mucho menos intentar arrugarlo. Su olor es bastante particular. Es una esencia de rosas, dientes de león, girasol y astromelias. Flores del jardín que conservan un olor a pasado, a nostalgia recogida en una pequeña caja. Se percibe su fragilidad algunas con unas texturas mЗs marcadas que otras, las vértebras de la flor que aun conserva su estructura. Una textura rugosa en algunas o y en otras lisa que hace mas palpable su delicadeza. Con el paso de los dТas su descomposiciЧn es mЗs visible: los colores envejecidos y desteñidos. Su forma va cambiando, se convierten en pequeñas y finas láminas. Llevan consigo un proceso de secado que con el tiempo hace que comience a desintegrarse y finalmente es un polvo que hace parte de esa pequeña caja contenedora de momentos, sensaciones y recuerdos. Al tenerlas en mi mano se siente como pesa el tiempo, se percibe por medio de su delicadeza el peso de los días que lleva consigo. Su fragilidad hace que se convierta en un objeto fino y sensible. Cada una de sus formas es única e impredecible, cada una se acomoda de una manera natural en su contenedor. En su libro Las Flores del Mal, Baudelaire trata de sugerir con su título algo muy diciente que también llevo conmigo gracias a este objeto y es que las flores son recogidas a través del sufrimiento. Sufrimiento entendido como un momento crucial, fuerte y decisivo en mi vida, que genera un cambio en mi. Son flores que por su estado “captura” esas imagenes de momentos importantes que siempre se quieren conservar.

Creo en la inmortalidad de la memoria, en la narrativa de las cosas y en los objetos como maquinas de tiempo que nos llevan a momentos e historias precisas y exactas. Buscando encontré mi peineta, la cual es la representación de un legado y de cientos de momentos que he vivido, pero también es un homenaje a esa persona que me enseño que: “El toreo es un arte misterioso, mitad vicio y mitad ballet. Es un mundo abigarrado, caricaturesco, vivísimo y entrañable el que vivimos los que, un día soñamos con ser toreros.”1 y a cada una de las personas que viven este arte con el alma y el corazón como lo hago yo. Desde muy pequeña aprendí a querer lo que muchos critican, tuve la oportunidad de conocer a una de las mejores personas de mi vida y de compartir con ella lo que para los dos era una pasión: la cultura de los toros, de las corridas, del ir al campo a impresionarse con este majestuoso animal que se para imponente en las praderas a mirar fijamente a los extraños; un animal lleno de vida que cada año hace de las tardes de corridas momentos inolvidables de mi vida. Esta persona fue mi abuelo, un personaje autentico que dejo en mi un legado que jamas olvidare y que cada día compartió conmigo su pasión, su arte y su conocimiento. Hoy después de algunos años de ya no tenerlo y de seguir viviendo por los dos lo que tanto disfrutamos, me doy cuenta de que esto hace parte de mi y de mi historia como persona, que tal vez este conocimiento que me dejo forma mi esencia y que con este objeto logro inmortalizar pases de capote, chicuelinas, violines de banderillas, sonrisas infinitas y tardes llenas de pasodobles; que guardo en mi memoria para nunca dejar morir la narrativa de mi historia.

Los objetos de ayer declaran una impresión en el día que hoy nos pertenece, una cámara de cajón de los años cincuenta que transporta un aire obstinado y contundente. Dentro de su simplicidad mecánica descansa una cantidad inimaginable de accidentes, detalles que el tiempo le hizo a la hora de jugar. De repente, su carácter fuerte se cargo de heridas, huellas que en realidad lograron anclarse a su morfología atribuyéndole fortaleza a su personalidad. Un objeto que se vuelve uno con el humano, un objeto que grita historias, no solo por su característica funcional de revelar, reproducir o ilustrar

una imagen, ni tampoco por traducir el universo que se para enfrente de las personas; nace para ser tocado y robar el espíritu de quien lo posee. El objeto soporta de manera altiva sus lesiones, convirtiéndolas en una reseña de identidad, habla y cuenta los devenires de su dueño y los intercala con los suyos. Sin darse cuenta su relato que trazaba dos caminos no distingue una historia de la otra, se siente tranquilo y despreocupado, cómodo en el lugar que tiempo y espacio dispusieron.Se da cuenta que ya no es el mismo de antes, se aventuró sin miedo a la torpeza de unas manos, a la desconsideración de los años y al arrepentimiento en sus arreglos. Esta herido, pero sus heridas las porta con triunfo; el óxido que anhela masticar sus piezas elaboradas con deber meticuloso lo ampara en su ser con una calidez misericordiosa. No se defiende, solo permite, se place de su seguridad y

pureza, se sostiene inmortal e invencible. Observa su universo con obseso detalle, aún sin importarle la dificultad que el aire le impuso a su visión. Amable, siempre con un tinte de soberbia no cercana a la arrogancia, una soberbia sutil y casi respetuosa.

Mi objeto es una pequeña alcancía de marrano de cerámica que no está hecha para ahorrar sino apreciar, es un regalo muy especial que me hizo una amiga cuando yo estaba con obsesión por los libros de Harry Potter, es un objeto pequeño, liviano y suave que cabe en una sola mano, evoca mucha ternura al ser un marranito gordito que fue cuidadosamente pintado con vinilos, que curiosamente le dan un sutil olor a plastilina que evoca muchos de mis recuerdos de infancia, me transporta a un época donde uno sólo se preocupaba por jugar.

Este marrano que, gracias a los Simpson, se conoce como Puerco Potter tiene muchas cualidades, es muy suave gracias a la pintura que le da brillos y texturas agradables, los acabados del marranito son todos redondeados por lo cual nunca lastima las manos, tiene sonido de sonajero al tener unas monedas adentro que para siempre van a permanecer ahí, y una capa de tela que lo acobija y le da mayor apariencia a Harry Potter.

Con este objeto puedo entender las formas redondas que dan esa apariencia gordita tierna y que a la vez hacen suave manipularlo, entiendo como un simple objeto de cerámica se puede convertir en algo tan valioso al ser modificado y dándole apariencia humana, es un objeto que transmite mucha alegría por tener el referente de este personaje mágico que tanto me gusta y no sólo a mí sino a todas las personas que conocen al Puerco Potter les queda fascinando, es un objeto inigualable que permite “consentirlo” y disfrutar tenerlo cerca.
