NUESTRO ARTISTA: IAN FENNELLY

Me llamo Ian Fennelly y soy artista, más concretamente urban sketcher; o, para ser aún más preciso, hago arte en lugares concurridos mientras observo edificios y mobiliario urbano.

Siempre me ha atraído el entorno urbano, esos lugares donde las personas interactúan con los espacios dinámicos que las rodean. Intento dibujar a la gente sin representarla directamente —en parte porque nunca se queda quieta—, pero me gusta dibujar los espacios que han habitado, los adoquines que han pisado o las ventanas a través de las cuales han mirado. Me encanta el dibujo del natural porque me permite registrar la experiencia de estar en un lugar concurrido.

Normalmente comienzo con una mancha de color aplicada con pincel para fragmentar el espacio que tengo delante. Esto establece las formas generales de la composición. Es una parte muy emocional del proceso, ya que se trabaja con el color, algo que nos afecta a todos de maneras distintas. La acuarela es perfecta para este momento, porque se suaviza con facilidad y crea un magnífico efecto de capas, que me permite construir tonos y veladuras de color.

Después trabajo sobre el color con rotuladores de pincel, lo que añade profundidad y valor tonal a la imagen. A continuación utilizo rotuladores de línea para incorporar textura y detalle. Esta es una parte fundamental del proceso creativo, ya que registrar los detalles de una escena urbana te obliga realmente a mirar y a fijarte en las cosas. Aquí entra el componente más humano: estar en el lugar, vivirlo plenamente y disfrutar del mundo que te rodea.

Finalmente, si tengo suerte, la obra queda terminada. Entre medias estoy constantemente moviéndome, subiendo y bajando, yendo al baño o comprando un café y un trozo de tarta. No suelo quedarme quieto, así que los ángulos pueden cambiar. Si un coche o una furgoneta se aparca delante de mí, la elección es dibujar a través de él o moverme a otro sitio; en cualquier caso, hay que implicarse por completo en la escena, tanto física como imaginativamente.

Mis dibujos urbanos suelen llevar entre dos y tres horas. Antes era mucho más rápido, pero ahora me fijo más. Cuanto más miras, más ves; cuanto más ves, más entiendes.

OUR ARTIST: DAVID MORALES

I am an architect and notebook illustrator, based between Barcelona and my hometown Ibagué, Colombia. I am deeply passionate about the beauty of simple and mundane things, these are the source of inspiration with which I fill my sketchbooks. The first time I picked up a sketchbook, in the early 1990s while I was in architecture school, I did so because I wanted to understand the proportions and materiality of the buildings I was looking at. seemed interesting.

These notebooks gradually became an inseparable object of my travels and architectural work. In 2018 I started an artistic project called "every day a drawing" where I represent my environment, my family and my concerns through daily drawings. Based on this project I have developed different ways of working that have allowed me to collaborate with other collectives, as well as creating my own workshops and illustration courses.

This project started as a personal goal to complete a year drawing every day, once I reached the initial goal I decided to extend it indefinitely. My closest environment is my greatest source of inspiration, thus, "every day a drawing" is the chronological sequence of my last 4 years of life, illustrations of travels, portraits of friends and family, as well as all kinds of events turn these notebooks into the graphic novel of my life.

A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE.
