Paz Errazuriz

Paz Errazuriz Today I will write and introduce to my favorite photographer: Paz Errazuriz. Paz has been my favorite photographer for many years, I have had visual and reflexive obsessions with her work. She is considered one of the most outstanding photographers in Chile, she is National Visual Arts Prize. Her work has a special commitment to black and white portraiture, in which she explores various social issues, emphasizing the crudest worlds and trades of Chilean society. Her latest book is in collaboration with the writer and biologist Jorge Díaz, and it seeks to broaden the discussions from a perspective embodied in blindness, seeks to address blindness as both a metaphor that has occupied art and literature for centuries, as well as a reality that is lived by thousands of people. What I like about Paz is that it captures images that are realistic and at the same time loaded with poetry. Among her best-known series are: The fight against the angel (1987) dedicate

My Best Friend

Today I will talk about my best friend. Her name is Francisca and I have known her since 2009. We met at school and soon became friends, we both had many common themes, such as politics, arts and music. I remember that we met at home frequently to paint, and we also talked a lot about music since at that time we both listened to The Beatles, Guns N' Roses, Pink Floyd, The Doors, Led Zeppelin. She was always good at singing and playing the guitar. By the time I left school, and I entered the university in Santiago, we began to see us much more because she was already living here with her mother. Here we visited museums, parks and went to many concert outdoor. For my second year in Santiago we to live together, she went to study musical interpretation in the center and I studied near her in this moment. It was a great year, we really enjoyed our time together because we know each other very well and share interests, plus we adopted a kitten. We stopped living together because she swi

Andes

When talking about walks, it's really hard to choose just one place. However, I think one of my favorite walks in life is taking the road to the Andes, from San Fabián de Alico. Every summer and winters, when I travel to my family in San Carlos, I have the opportunity to take a bus in front of my house to San Fabian de Alico, and from there walk its hills, visit the river for the day or even camping for a few days at the campsites. Last time at the end of February, I traveled with my family, and a friend from Santiago with her baby Luna and her boyfriend, we visited the Ñuble river and we promised to return to enjoy the river with the little Luna when she learned to walk . I really enjoy taking the road to the mountain range, it is a beautiful tour, full of hills and lots of nature. Unfortunately, a few years ago began the construction of a damming, the Punilla damming, and the place changed to a lot, the water of the river is darker, ist have less nature and there are more tour

With my friends!

This beautiful photograph was taken in February 2016 in La Paz, Bolivia. With my best friends, all geography students, we decided to travel on our summer vacations, we traveled through Peru and Bolivia, and our last destination before returning to Chile to La Paz. In this picture we are Valentina, me, Mariana and Isidora (from left to right), on one of the most effective public transport in La Paz: the cable cars. I like this photo because it conveys joy and love, we really enjoyed and we were very happy on this trip, it was an experience where we grew up in many ways. Besides, the cable cars trip is one of the most important memories of Bolivia, we loved it because it is a clean transport and the fastest that can be taken to travel in a city like La Paz. It has a very interesting route that is possible to see in all detail from the highest urban transport in the world !! It is really exciting to know this chaotic city from above! When I see this picture, I feel I would like to trave
