Joana Vascocelos is a portugese artist that makes this stunning pieces of art. I am in LOVE with her works where she mixes crochet, knitting, patchwork, tassles, feathers, fur, pompoms...and lots of colors! She reminds me of Niki Saint Phalle.

I get so inspired by this kind of art, It's so femenine, joyful and magical...have a look to this beautiful creatures:

El trabajo de Joana Vasconcelos es pura inspiracion para mi. Me encantan sus instalaciones en las que mezcla punto, crochet, flecos, plumas, pompones, patchwork y muchos colores.

It´s impossible not to be amazed by the patters and the colors that the Ndebele tribes in South Africa use to decorate their homes. This tradition comes from the XIX century after loosing the war against the boers and the huge repression that they suffer afterwards. It was their way to protest, those symbols are codify messages. I love their art...and it's made only by the women in the tribes .

Me encanta el arte de las tribus Ndebele de Sudáfrica. Empezaron a decorar sus casas con estos colores y símbolos en el s.XIX tras perder la guerra con los boers y sufrir una brutal represión. Estas decoraciones representan símbolos y mensajes ocultos que sólo ellos entienden. Me fascinan también sus ropajes...cuánta fuerza, cuánta belleza y cuánto color!

I already knew about the Ndebele tribe artwork but Walala, remind it of it! I had a crush on her beautiful patterns and designs and she just post it in her blog.

Ya conocía el arte de las Ndebele, pero Walala me lo recordó, me encantan sus estampados, son la versión moderna de estas trubus!
