The experience of illness can help us gain in courage even if we fail in capacity. We will sometimes fail to produce what we should, or to write or speak articulately enough, to be “right,” to be thoughtful or expansive enough, to consider the whole range of historical circumstance, to be responsible at our work’s distribution—but our failure is part of the collective project. We brave our errors in thought for the possibility that to see that their demonstration will allow others to get toward rightness. We brave the humility to learn from fair criticism, and also learn that usefully distanced shrug at the inevitable appearance of the jealous or maligning kind. We brave clumsy writing or speaking, that even in a crude form, a necessary idea will emerge as material for others to refine. When we are silent, we learn it makes room for others to speak.

It’s not just our errors we become brave about, but our projects’—and our own—incompleteness. You can stop fearing death, too, if you begin to think of the collective project of being alive in the common world, that one’s own end and the end to one’s work and one’s love is not the end of what is right or good. What needs to go on will.

BEER 600!   COLLECTIVE ARTS ~ IPA PROJECT #1

This brew is the first in a series of IPA's each showcasing a different combination of hop flavours.This brew features Nelson Sauvin, Simcoe and Citra. The Nelson saurian given the beer tropical fruit flavours and aroma, the Simcoe gives it citrus/pine notes and city imparts a floral citrus flavours. Sampled from a tin, the beer poured a hazy golden amber gold with a good sized frothy head, which left some thick lace. There is lots of tropical fruit on the nose (papaya, mango, tangerine, grapefruit) as well as some resiny pine, earthiness, florals, white wine and crackery malts.The taste is quite hop forward, with a really nice hop complexity - all hops imparting a different flavour - floral, white wine, grapefruit, pine, earthiness. Tropical fruit flavours add a bit of sweetness . The body and carbonation are moderate and the finish has a lingering fruity bitterness. The 7% is quite hidden making this one very drinkable. 7.1% from Hamilton, Ontario

BVIO | ABBIAMO FINITO CON I BUONI SENTIMENTI  uno spazio temporaneo di CHEAP 

Il progetto di arte pubblica con sede a Bologna, apre uno spazio temporaneo nel centro della città in occasione della nuova edizione di Arte Fiera 2023: BVIO.

La grande installazione luminosa all’interno dello spazio temporaneo di CHEAP si staglia contro il nero pece dell’ambiente, allestito al piano terra di Palazzo Sassoli (ingresso da Vicolo Bolognetti, 18). Un progetto che è stato pensato e scritto così: con quella U littoria che diventa V, che riporta al sostrato fascista dello scorso risultato elettorale in Italia, che come un trompe-l’oeil fa intravedere anche un B(I)VIO. L’installazione luminosa accompagna una stanza oscura dove sono proiettati i testi di/dell’artistə che CHEAP ha chiamato a raccolta a lavorare sulla suggestione del buio, come momento storico, sociale, ambientale e culturale. Frammenti, versi, ma anche paragrafi e riflessioni che scorrono sulle pareti in un ambiente sonoro composto di fruscii, ronzare di insetti elettrici, movimenti acquatici. E quindi c’è la guerra, c’è la povertà, ci sono tutte le declinazioni di fascismo che la contemporaneità poteva produrre, c’è una crisi ambientale definitiva e ci sono dei confini che non sembrano aver mai ucciso tanto. Ma c’è anche il buio come opportunità: quella di tessere alleanze, di affilare nuovi sguardi, reinventarsi come mostri.

Love To (All) Colors

La Consejería Cultural de la Embajada de España en Cuba nos encargo una pieza para su campaña: “Amor Por (Todos) Los Colores”. Una iniciativa para celebrar el fútbol y la diversidad sexual, uniendo a través de la gráfica el mes del orgullo LGBT y la Eurocopa 2021. Para ello han reclutado un team compuesto por ilustradores españoles y cubanos que se encargarán de aportar su particular visión del tema y aunar aficiones bajo, no un solo color, sino todos ellos.

--

The Cultural Council of the Spanish embassy in La Habana asked us to make an illustration for their campaign: "Amor Por (Todos) Los Colores" (Love To [All] The Colors).

The initiative aims to celebrate the soccer and sexual diversity by taking advantage that this June, the LGBT pride month coincides with the European Championship 2021. So they've recruited a graphic team made up of Spanish and Cuban players, who will contribute their views about a clear claim: fans united under, not a single color, but all of them.
