He continuously alternated between city and country; and the country served as a refuge from the city. His journeying from one residence to another had commonly served as a framework for the development of his oeuvre. He changed his working environment in order to immerse himself in particular subjects, environments, and visual conditions. He lived in that zone that was not city or country. ..

In February, he left for the south, although may have been a sudden decision: "I am leaving tomorrow; let's arrange the atelier in such a way that my brother will feel that I am still here."

Humberto Solas,

Lam decia que cuando encontramos
personas que piensan como nosotros

nos da alegria

ya que es como

afirmar que existimos.

(Afterthoughts)

She alludes to the postwar years as a time when men were leaving, as if suggesting an era when men were constantly and continuously leaving the island. Similar to the flow of a river, she addresses those years as the years of one directional mass exile. One, indeed, could refer to an exodus of men to the United States; furthermore this exploration might also incorporate other positions about contemporary discourses on mobility.

The use of rivers as metaphors for the one way migration can be questioned, as this model evokes a coordinated flow, while it denies a change of direction in the currents, hence contradicting theories of circular, pendulous, zig-zag, and other kind of migration.

A long time ago, I wrote about sharing my live with a visual artist

(see original post: Provocations. 2007.04.16)

...Through the years our works have hanged across each other in our living and working space. They seem to understand each other... It seems like the interplay between you and me. It is in those boundaries were we find each other, beneath the subject, the technique, or the form, it is in our intentionality that we engage and find each other.

The relationship between two artists behind the studio door is invisible to the audience gaze, but I am convinced that our work is possible because of our relationship and vice versa. As we create through years of togetherness and knowing what we wanted to achieve and how our interaction affect our process and subject matter.

...Inspiration and ideas also came with our interaction as we took photographs or practice printmaking together. After a few years, we argue about art less and we learned to communicate with less words. Last week, in the "Van Gogh and Expressionism" exhibition at the Neue Gallery we already knew we will love Vincent and Klimt, we also knew that at some point you will make some comments about the German artists and I will overreact for a few seconds but it will not matter because later on we will be mesmerized by a new art work we had never seen before and we will agree about that piece of Egon Schiele. Then we will leave the museum enchanted, in love and knowing that images are stronger than words....
