if they close dolores park for a year+ like they’re talking about doing, a substantial part of my motivation for moving to the city will be closed along with it…

update

so, here’s a list of some of the cool stuff you can’t see photos of that i did between la paz and la isla del sol (photos of isla del sol, arequipa, and colcha canyon guided tour forthcoming via various dubious channels):

-ethnologic museum: amazing exhibit of regional festival masks presented in creepy spotlighting in a pitchblack room! the room was also chockfull of high school kids in halloween costumes, for some odd reason. unbelievable textiles (note to self: wallpaper dreamhome in modern jalq’a netherworld tapestries)

-national art museum: good stuff.

-valle de las animas: QT with illimani, rocks thrown at me by local 8yr olds mad that i wouldn’t give them money, etc. quixotic “hike” through what has, since the LP was written, become a rural community (“path” now paved)

-tiahuanaco: a little underwhelming

-sunset from the calvary above copacabana (about the only thing swinging in that town between festivals and tourism high seasons)

Artist's Statement:

Si lo que vemos es todo lo que existe, entonces el cuerpo ,la flor y las aves tropicales, serían la coronación de la vida y no lo son . Son sólo vehículos de las fuerzas que subyacen detrás de las formas ,de la fuerza interior que se conecta con algo intangible , superior o a veces inferior, demoníaca.

Todo ser humano es divino, o tiene esa capacidad en potencia ; esas fuerzas que tallan las formas , que desnudan la esencia en pos de la personalidad o le confieren carácter a una naturaleza silenciosa , son las que intento atrapar con mi cámara.
