"Apanha-me também um poeta!" - Bernard Jeunet

O Espaço Augusto Cabrita é da minha eleição aqui pelo Barreiro e tenho tido o privilégio de ver exposições super interessantes, no âmbito do Ilustrarte. A mais recente é a de BERNARD JEUNET. Mais info aqui. Tenho que ir ver! Perdi a exposição da Cristina Valadas no ciclo "A arte na página" ... :( Espreitem! As ilustrações são deliciosas e o site está muito clean and neat.


"Bernard Jeunet não pinta nem desenha as suas ilustrações. As suas personagens são esculpidas em papel, a pose ensaiada sobre cenários, a composição ajustada com rigor, os elementos decorativos dispostos meticulosamente. Todo o mobiliário, todos os objectos, da minúscula caixa de lápis ao minúsculo caderno, a luz e as sombras, os reflexos da luz na água. Tudo é papel!"

feira parque das nações - 20Maio

A minha "piquena" banca. Para primeira feira, foi um pouco decepcionante... não houve muito movimento e estavam demasiadas coisas a acontecer no mesmo dia (o evento da bandeira, a queima das fitas, a feira Sorrir, o sol+calor (que é a mesma coisa que dizer "PRAIA!") e estávamos meio escondidas.
Valeu pelas conversas, pelas compras, pela companhia...:)

My first participation at a crafts fair! It was a bit disapointing because there was too much going on on the same day... so, not much movement. But I had a good time... it was fun talking to some of the girls from the blogs and flickr:)

chá de miau e made with love

Her hair took hours and hours to make!

Crachá e mala (oferecida pelo Tiagão) da "amores de tóquio"; pregadeiras morango+cogumelo da "Michele handicrafts" [ups! devo rectificar que a mala é da Marta Aifos, que partilhava banca com a kitty-san e a sarapico]

Fiquei ainda mais fã das coisas da "amores de Tóquio":) Fiquei de olho também nos crachás com pássaros em origami - lindos!


Shopping through the crafts fair...

new hair...

Hoje fui a uma entrevista para trabalhar num "centro" de ATL. Convidaram-me para almoçar e ficar por lá para ter uma ideia do trabalho, das rotinas, etc. Fiquei e fui alvo da curiosidade de vários pares de olhinhos atentos. "Quem é?" "Como é que te chamas?" "Quantos anos tens?"

Estava a almoçar com a outra professora e duas meninas aproximaram-se. Uma perguntou-lhe...
- Como é que ela se chama?
- Sara.
- Ela vai ficar cá?
- Ainda não sabemos, só na Segunda ou Terça.
- Tenho que ir falar com a Direcção para ela ficar cá...
- Ai é? Porquê?
- Porque parece uma rapariga simpática.

:)

E as outras meninas que se escondiam e chamavam "Professora nova! Professora nova!"

Oh boy... isto acaba por criar alguma expectativa... mas estou em paz, seja qual for a decisão:)
