Año nuevo, nueva tienda. Y blog nuevo! Pelpa empezó como un experimento, un intento de hacer objetos de papel reciclado. Cualquier tipo de objeto.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES-TRAD"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;Un día hice un títere de dedo y me gustó. Hice otro. Y quedé atrapada por la posibilidad de jugar con la diversidad, sumergirme en las infinitas formas en que una persona/títere puede ser. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES-TRAD"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;El acento se fue corriendo del papel como material&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;en sí mismo al banico de expresiones, personalidades, miradas. Empecé a probar distintos materiales y si bien el papel maché sigue siendo la base de mis trabajos, también empecé a usar pasta de modelar. Y a agregar detalles en tela y otros materiales. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES-TRAD"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;Y como siempre me importaron los nombres (de todo: de las calles donde viví, de los chicos que me gustaban, de las escuelas a las que fui…) aquí estamos, con una tienda que refleja más fielmente el devenir de las cosas. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES-TRAD"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;En estos meses Pelpa me ha dejado varias lecciones (creo que) aprendidas:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES-TRAD"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;-Ser constante trae sus frutos. Para alguien que es tan volátil con sus ideas y proyectos, ésta ha sido el mejor aprendizaje&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES-TRAD"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;-No hay que ser perfecto en el arte. Es más importante tener algo que decir, y eso surge de haber vivido, de la historia de vida de cada uno. Además, es en la imperfección donde la gente puede ver mi huella, ahí estoy yo y eso es maravilloso.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES-TRAD"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;-El mundo es grande, hay lugar para todos! Siempre me pregunté cómo yo podía osar hacer “arte” habiendo sobre este planeta artistas tan virtuosos. Ahora me pregunto cómo pude olvidarme de que lo importante es disfrutar lo que hago. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES-TRAD"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;-No hay edad para aprender. No es una cuestión de años, sino más bien de paciencia, dedicación y humildad. Y dura toda la vida.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES-TRAD"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;Espero verlos por mi nuevo blog/shop/flickr...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" ;font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;And this is the big news: we’ve moved (my puppets and I). New year, new shop. And new blog! Pelpa started as an experiment, an attempt to make objects from recycled paper. Any kind of object.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;Once I made a finger puppet and I liked it. Then I made another one. And I felt captivated by the possibility of playing with diversity and the many ways a person/puppet can be.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;The emphasis went from the paper itself as a material, to the range of expressions, personalities, gazes. I started to try different materials and added clay, fabric and more.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;And because names have always meant a lot to me (names of everything: streets where I lived, guys I liked, schools I attended…) here we are, with a shop that better represents the fate of things. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;Over this time Pelpa has taught me a few lessons:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;-Being constant has its rewards. To someone as volatile as me when it comes to ideas and projects, this one has been the best learning process.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;-You don’t have to be perfect in art. It is more important to have something to say. Actually it is in imperfection that people can see a trace of me, that is where I am, and that’s wonderful.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;-The world is big, there is room for everyone! I used to wonder how I could dare to make “art”, with so many virtuoso artists all over the Earth. Now I wonder how I could forget that the important thing is enjoying what you do.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"&gt;-Learning has no age.

Even though she loves the sea, she is more the kind of person who prefers to stay in the shade reading Jacques Prévert’s poetry, rather than playing in the water. She doesn’t know it, but she is made of paper mache, hand-painted and sealed with matt varnish.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;!--EndFragment--&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1163627926934157702-5690245751925661217?l=pelpa-etc.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://pelpa-etc.blogspot.com/feeds/5690245751925661217/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://pelpa-etc.blogspot.com/2009/08/bathers.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1163627926934157702/posts/default/5690245751925661217'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1163627926934157702/posts/default/5690245751925661217'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://pelpa-etc.blogspot.com/2009/08/bathers.html' title='The bathers'/><author><name>flor</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11507440573013441415</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='29' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HPLq6rAOwic/Ssud_Pc3NUI/AAAAAAAAAII/I00Y9b0kK2A/S220/avatar2.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HPLq6rAOwic/SoiKWr6HO-I/AAAAAAAAADo/8SRQkV3MuJo/s72-c/franchu.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1163627926934157702.post-510190097987040887</id><published>2009-07-18T16:53:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-08-14T16:07:28.537-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dolls'/><title type='text'>Nena y Enriqueta</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"   style="color: rgb(102, 102, 102);   line-height: 19px; font-family:Arial;font-size:12px;"&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Mi abuela Nena es una tipa super creativa, divertida, talentosa y dedicada. A los quince ya era profesora de corte y confección en Singer. Y como en cuestiones de moda siempre estuvo a la vanguardia, a finales de 1930 se paseaba con modelitos exclusivos por el &lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;pueblo, arrancando comentarios y suspiros. Porque, además, hay que decirlo: era y sigue siendo una mujer preciosa.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Mi abuela pinta como los dioses, y si hay alguna curiosidad en mí por explorar un camino creativo, viene sin dudas de la rama femenina de la familia. En las últimas (larguísimas) vacaciones que pasé en Argentina, me regaló unas muestras de crochet que tejió cuando tenía diez años (y va a cumplir 88 en agosto). Conste que intentó enseñarme pero, por empezar, en mi cabeza no entra que uno pueda hacer esas maravillas con una sola aguja.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;!--StartFragment--&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"  style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US;font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;My grandmother Nena is a very funny, talented, dedicated and creative woman. At the age of fifteen she was already a dressmaking teacher for Singer. And since where fashion is concerned she was always one step ahead, in the late 1930s she would walk through town wearing exclusive little numbers, raising sighs and comments. Because, it must also be said: she was and still is a beautiful woman.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"  style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US;font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;My grandma is a consummate painter, and if I have any curiosity within me for a creative path, it certainly comes from my mother's side of my family. During the last,(very long) holidays I spent in Argentina, she gave me a few crochet samples she wove when she was ten years old (and she'll be turning 88 in August). Let it be noted that she tried to teach me, but, to begin with, I can't get it through my head that you can make these wonderful things with just one needle.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;!--EndFragment--&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HPLq6rAOwic/Siu39rbZU9I/AAAAAAAAAB8/iu8tNurgSSs/s1600-h/crochet2.jpg" style="color: rgb(153, 153, 153); text-decoration: none; "&gt;&lt;img src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HPLq6rAOwic/Siu39rbZU9I/AAAAAAAAAB8/iu8tNurgSSs/s320/crochet2.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5344567653062759378" style="display: block; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: auto; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: auto; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 253px; border-width: initial; border-color: initial; padding-top: 4px; padding-right: 4px; padding-bottom: 4px; padding-left: 4px; border-top-width: 1px; border-right-width: 1px; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-left-width: 1px; border-top-style: solid; border-right-style: solid; border-bottom-style: solid; border-left-style: solid; border-top-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); border-right-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); border-bottom-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); border-left-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); " /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Y me las regaló para que las use en mis “proyectos artísticos”. La verdad es que me parecen un tesoro así como son y no las quiero tocar. Pero hice una excepción con Enriqueta, porque es la primera muñeca que fabrico y merec&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" ;font-family:arial;"&gt;ía ese honor. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"  style=" ;font-family:arial;"&gt;Voilà:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;!--StartFragment--&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-pagination:none"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"  style="mso-ansi-language:EN-US;font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;"&gt;And she gave me them so I can use them in my "artistic projects". The truth is that to me they are a treasure just the way they are and I don't want to change a thing. But I made an exception with Enriqueta, because she's the first doll I made and she deserved the honour.
