“I have devoted myself to architecture as a sublime act of poetic imagination. Consequently, I am only a symbol for all those who have been touched by beauty. The words Beauty, Inspiration, Magic, Spellbound, Enchantment, as well as the concepts of Serenity, Silence, Intimacy and Amazement, all these have nestled in my soul. Though I am fully aware that I have not done them complete justice in my work, they have never ceased to be my guiding lights.” WellsHas BeensSoulDoneLightInspirationImaginationJusticeSilenceMagicConceptsArchitectureMy SoulSymbolsIntimacyTouchedPoeticSerenityDevotedSublimeEnchantmentAmazementGuiding Light Author:Luis Barragan
“The artivist (artist +activist) uses her artistic talents to fight and struggle against injustice and oppression – by any medium necessary. The artivist merges commitment to freedom and justice with the pen, the lens, the brush, the voice, the body, and the imagination. The artivist knows that to make an observation is to have an obligation.” KnowsUseBodyArtistFightingVoiceImaginationJusticeStruggleTalentCommitmentInjusticeObligationMediumsOppressionObservationArtisticPensActivistBrushesLensesInjustice And OppressionArtistic Talent Author:M.
