moleskine journals during the last 11 months. they are not often brights
and joyfuls (they NEVER are!) and they maybe make me look like I'm a crazy,
emo, selfdestructive bitch. well maybe I am but, as a matter of facts, my
feelings about my tortured self-portraits are that those drawings are my
very personal liberation from sadness, is like getting out some files from
a full computer into some external hard disc or some usb key: you get out
the worst feelings to avoid they get all the space in your brain. once the
bad feeling is on paper I feel lighter and happier.
maybe is for this reason that I don't often draw when I'm happy, when I'm
happy I want to keep all this good feeling in my heart, I don't need them
to go away.
