"MY WAY, YOUR WAY, ANY WAY"

Hi guys, this is some of my new work, I wanna question and yell to the open air and to whoever hears it this question: “Which way????”, and I wanna say “My way”, but I’m willing to risk doing it “Your way” only to live the experience, unless it’s guaranteed is gonna be amazing, no matter how just make it happen in “Any way”.

I hope you enjoy the view, this Neon I brought to Shadmoor State Park in Montauk, one of my favorite places there.

I also wanna mention the song that inspired me for this work, it’s called “Love the night away” by Dj Kaos, I heard it during the summer on a drive from home to Brooklyn, it talks about cherish hopes and dreams and a special connection with someone, passion and love!, you should listen to it, it’s fun!.

Greetings from California where I’m editing this post right now,

Teresa.

Frágil pero fuerte.

Y después de todo,

ahi estas tú,

brillando con toda tu luz

a los pies del océano,

la brisa del mar acariciándote,

y la neblina

haciéndote lucir más bella que nunca.

y después de todo,

ahí estas tu,

frágil pero fuerte.

NEON BOOBS: 3 STORIES

NEON BOOBS.png

I have 3 stories for you today.

All my boobies creations represent a woman and a story, today I posted on my instagram this photo below about 3 of my neon boobs artworks and I want to tell you about it.

From left to right:

1.- “Dominga”, that’s my abuelita’s name (RIP) she had big ones, so does my mom and of course, myself, thanks Minga (that’s how we used to call her) and all my big boobs ancestors haha, it wasn’t until a few years ago that i finally accepted the fact that i had big boobs and started feeling good about it. I grew up feeling ashamed of them, they were just so big, but these are the coconuts that I was meant to have so there’s nothing I can do about it. This piece talks about genes and heritage, generations and family resemblance from woman to woman.

2.- “Plus, we’re not perfect”, these are big boobs and uneven, because that’s normal, I’m talking about naturally plus size girls, a lot of plus size women aren’t happy with their bodies, even skinny girls aren’t but none of us are perfect and that’s okay, so let’s just try to carry that weight in the best possible and healthy way.

3.- “Bipolar”, to all of you with a bipolar disorder struggling everyday, going from one or many positive thoughts to negative ones, you’re still going to be loved, hang in there and ask for help, know the symptoms and talk to your family, I’m no expert and I don’t want to hurt anyone with my thoughts so I’ll stop right there because i don’t know how that feels like, but I will continue celebrating all of you chicas no matter what.


Light & Love,

Teresa.

Hi, I’m again so happy to share my most recent neon artwork with all of you.

All the elements came together in such a magical way for me yesterday at Rockaway Beach, here in New York; my vision came to life exactly the way I wanted it, although is really hard to photograph neon lights and I don’t own a prime lens but i’m satisfied with the results because I got that 1 shot I was looking for. If you follow my work you know I play with roses at the beach all the time and that is my main inspiration for this, I have a deep respect for the ocean for many reasons and I believe light and water are besties in my world.

Thanks for reading me, please enjoy life as much as you can and I hope you get to enjoy my work as well.

Light & Love,

Teresa.

"I FEEL YOU"

By the ocean is when I feel the presence of the absent the most, “ I FEEL YOU” is a work that expresses my thoughts and reflexions about the absence and the presence of the people we love that is no longer physically around us but we feel connected to them, there is irony in the concept; “I FEEL YOU” is a message I send to the most amazing natural things that Mother Earth gives us, the ocean, the sun, wildlife, flowers, rocks, trees, etc.

I’m so thrilled to share with you this light work i’ve created to celebrate the presence and the absence of a soul or a place we feel connected to.“I Feel you” is my message to those i love the most, is a love letter to the ocean and nature and is t…

I’m so thrilled to share with you this light work i’ve created to celebrate the presence and the absence of a soul or a place we feel connected to.

“I Feel you” is my message to those i love the most, is a love letter to the ocean and nature and is the way I honor “your presence” and live “your absence”.

On October 4th of 2010 I lost my father due to sudden heart and respiratory problems, it was a surprise and I was devastated, my dad was gone. He would’ve been 71 years old today on June 11th 2020, Its been 10 years since he is not physically with me but he is present in my heart. This piece I dedicate to him!

Light & love for you always,

Teresa.

DIA:Beacon

DIA: Beacon is one of the most awesome places in New York if you’re into art and escapades like me. I love it!

Take the Metro North train ride from Grand Central (is only $35 dls round trip to Beacon) is about 1:30 min that feels like 30 minutes really.

I’m sharing just a few photos of what you can see in there but there’s way more! too bad the lower level was closed this time but I guess i’ll have to come back when they reopen it.

My always favorites: Richard Serra and Mary Corse, but this time I was completely seduced by Sam Gilliam’s work.

"She Cries (Part 3)"

“She cries (Part 3)”

She tries to hold her tears, 

but they’re in a rush to come out,

her heart was sad

but you look at her and smile, 

She tries to hide her feelings, 

but they come out as water from her eyes,

She cries to a dream

She cries for love

but soon her tears become joy.
