Hello, today I will talk again about my career ... PLASTIC ARTS <3

Well, I chose plastic arts from the university of Chile mainly because of its curriculum, since it was the only university that still taught ceramics. And also, the only one that was still plastic and non-visual arts. The difference between these two is that the plastics are manual arts, painting, ceramics, sculpture, etc. ... the visual arts incorporate technological arts to the curriculum and the truth is that it is not my thing. I wanted to work with my hands straight into the material. And I was very lucky because the year after I joined the mesh changed and those of the new generation will be visual artists.

I had an extracurricular class called art and science and I loved it - I think it's perfect that the university has those courses.

As for the academic load, it is much more than it seems, since each work is very slow, sometimes a drawing can take days and the workshop blocks lasted, in times of no pandemic, 3 hours.

The part of the arts that don't tell you is that the hand is connected to the head and heart so you confront yourself with art, what is good or bad, depends on how you take it. That according to me will make the burden more or less heavy in terms of your university work.

 

 

I'm in third year, so I reached get to know the facilities, and they're pretty deplorable. It has always been a struggle fix the workshops, since many jobs have been lost due to the rains and the poor state of the faculty. Which I find nefarious

In pandemic it has been the same teachers who have moved to buy internet chips from students. And most of them have been a great support. 

In particular I find that I have learned a lot since we have had all the theoretical classes, the first year we spent a lot of time in university's takes and I had almost none of my theoretical. 

I very much appreciate the effort that teachers and students make in maintaining this desire to teach and learn and I hope that the best will be made of this half-rare moment.

See you
