Expert Mover: Day 8



Expert Mover: Day 8

8 X 16 inches (20 X 40 cm) collage and mixed media


Here is the Moving Story in English, then Spanish:


There are those who desperately cry for help, although they don't really need it.

And there are those who go through all the steps, because life is change and evolution, and they learn a little with every move, until they become experts.


Hay quien reclama desesperadamente que le ayuden, aunque en realidad no lo necesita.

Y hay quien pasa por todas las fases, porque la vida es cambio evolución, y aprende un poquito en cada mudanza, hasta convertirse en un experto.

Here is the Moving Story in English, then Spanish:


There are those who pay for a big lorry for just 4 boxes. ...Those who try to save money by making 20 trips in their car, loaded up like a game of Tetris.

Hay quien contrata un gran camión para cuatro objetos. ...Hay quien intenta ahorrar haciendo 20 viajes en su coche, cargándolo en plan Tetris.

Expert Mover: Day 1



Expert Mover: Day 1

8 X 16 inches (20 X 40 cm) collage and mixed media

The images used in this series are from two photographs of Palma de Mallorca in 1910. I am going to move soon into Palma, this move being my 17th in 21 years...hence the title. The title also comes from the last line in the text that acts as a thread through the series of 8. Normally the text I use is pretty well obscured under paint, but this contribution was so appropriate, I decided to let it be read.

Here it is in English, then Spanish:


There are those who organize, coordinate and think things over 14 times, trying to have it all under control...

Hay quien las organiza, coordina y piensa 14 veces, intentando asegurarse de tenerlo todo bajo control...
