Red House, photography project.
A photo session of a national landmark that reveals an amazing beauty despite the neglected conditions in which it is currently.
In mail art a certificate of participation it is usually made, which includes the name and address of the participants. Since they were too many to fit on one page, I decided to do something more fun, like “Where’s Waldo?”.
I just included the name and the country in the artwork. The participant will have to go around the page to find his/her name.
A similar design is included in the the zine- catalogue of the project.
This is the updated certification of the participant to our mail art project.
This past months my energy has been put in Postal Art T&T | Self-portrait project. From the design of the website, posters, invites, among others. I also curated the exhibition (my first time in this area) and it was exciting, exhausting and rewarding.
I had everything pictured in my head and materializing ideas could play you a tricky turnout but gladly I had an expert at my side. That’s my dad (Luis Vasquez Saa), a true perfectionist who can visualize any lurking problem and as good designer he finds solutions. So with his advise and my ideas we made of the exhibition something refreshing and inspiring, where people could interact with the work (they could touch, read, smell the postcard if they wanted).
We enjoyed it and the viewers did too.
Venue: Bohemia | Woodbrook, Port of Spain
______________________________________
Estos últimos meses, mi energía se ha puesto en el proyecto de Postal Art T&T | Self-portrait; desde el diseño del sitio web, posters, invitaciones, entre otros. También fui responsable de curar la exhibición (mi primera vez que en esta área artística) y fue excitante, agotador y muy gratificante.
Todo el diseño de la exposición se encontraba visualizada en mi cabeza, era cuestión de materializarlas pero esta parte te puede hacer una mala jugada si nos prestas atención. Afortunadamente tenia un experto a mi lado. Ese es mi papá (Luis Vásquez Saá), un verdadero perfeccionista que se puede visualizar cualquier problema al acecho y como buen diseñador siempre encuentra soluciones. Así que con su consejo y mis ideas que hizo de la exposición algo refrescante e inspirador, donde la gente podía interactuar con las pequeñas obras (se podía tocar, leer, oler la postal).
Lo disfrutamos así como también los espectadores.
Lugar: Bohemia | Woodbrook, Puerto España, Trinidad & Tobago
