Happiness 

      I think that is very difficult define the happiness because for me is a feeling very inexplicable and this depend of each personal experience, but in general I believe that is when the people feel us many positive emotions.
      In general the happiness in the people is associated with the valuation system and the priority for each person. Some people are happy with material things, like a car or a big house and other with spiritual aspects of the life, like living in peace. In my case I believe that I'm happy with simple things like with my cat, his name is Chakiro and I'm very happy with he waiting for me when arrive of University or anyplace, and he moves to me and I hug her, He's very soft.
      When I'm happy I'm not very express this very much because I'm a little reserved with my emotions, but in general I smile more than usual.
       I think that still I haven`t the happiness moment in my life, because I believe that I had have many moments happy and I wouldn't choose alone one, like have a big and great family, being study what I like and I could have said goodbye to my grandmother before she death.
      I think that we can collaborate with others' happiness always respecting the other emotions and other opinions.

   

                                      My  favorite technological element 

         Generally I don`t like very much the technological element because I hate the people that look a screen all the time, but from the moment when I got a professional camera, all change for my, because I love this and I want take a picture all the time. I think that is my best work tool in the career. The photographic camera is my favorite technological element.
        I got it almost three years ago, in this year I chose the photography workshop like minor and all my classmates had their own professional camera but me, and this situation was very difficult for me, until my parents bought me a camera and I felt very happy. Now I try of use this all the time, in travels, special moments, whit my family and the most important is my work tool out and into the career.
       I adore my camera because discover in the photography a new form of expression and it`s very important in the arts visuals, and I think that my life without my camera would be boring and still would be thinking what is my truth vocation.

       When I was a child I wanted to be a ballet dancer and anthropologist, but now I don´t studying this career.
      When I was at high school I  didn't know what study, all my classmate knew what wanted study and it was difficult for me, so the principal teacher sent me to orient conference for choose my future career, and in this moment I thinked that Publicity was the best career for me. When I applying to University, the only option for me was Publicity in USACH, and I studied three years but I wasn't happy here because it was very competitive and commercial career.
      Always I like the arts but I never think that I would finish studying this! When I was studying publicity a friend say me: I think that you should study arts because you are good for this and you aren't happy now. Then I think that he was right, and I maked to decision of changed my career.
       Now my experience in this career has been very good although something personal experience, for example when I was in second academy year, lose a family very close to me and it was very sad.
       In actuality my dreams is work like professional photographer because I love the photography.

        My name is Karen Tabilo Tabilo. I was born in Ovalle, a small and quiet city. My mother is Melva Tabilo and I met my father when I had twenty one years old. I haven't brothers but I have many cousins and they are like my brothers.
        I studied in Santa Teresa School until that I had fifteen years old, then I studied in Pucará School, in this place I had very good friends and I graduated here.
        I studied publicity in Santiago of Chile University three years but I wasn't happy here. In twenty eleven I changed my career from publicity to visual arts in Chile of University, and this was a good decision. The past year I was in student exchange in Mexico, it was very interesting because it's beautiful place and the art is very important, but I prefer our country because here the men are less sexist and the women are more respected.
        I chose the photography workshop as minor because I lovely the photography and I work like photographer freelancer. Too I like dancing and the past year in my free times I went to arabe dance class.
        I adore the animals and the animal rights are very important for me, for this reason I'm vegetarian since a five years. In Ovalle with my mother we have seven cats and one dog. We love them!

            

Hi, today I will talk about an article on visual arts, especially in the area that I like the most: photograpy. Last Tuesday I was checking my Facebook, I like to follow news pages like emol, BioBio, Defensa Animal, and others which keep me informing what´s happening in the country and in the world, and in emol I saw the death of patricio Guzman, a chilean photographer. 

Patricio Guzman focused his job on social photography, especially during the 50s to the 70s in ours country and furthermore between 1964 and 1967 he worked at the photography lab at Universidad de Chile. As photographer, some of his most famous Works were songwriter Victor Jara´s portrait, whose most emblematic images were done by the aforementioned photographer. 

I really like this photographer because his job has a historical meaning for Chile during the 60s. His contribution to provide evidence to the difficult condition the country liven in. I wanted to share this article with you because few people know about his contriburion to chilean visual arts, since his work is very famous abroad and he know how to show the country during a period of fear and silence by the changes that were happening in a beautiful and emotional manner.

Gabriel García Márquez 

Hello everyone, I would like to talk to you about one of my favourite writers, his name is Gabriel Garcia Marquez. He was a colombian writer and one of the greatest representation of magical realism.

I like this writer because he is a latin american, and because his profound description of all the characters that makes the readers become interested in them and creates certain empathy towards them. In addition, it’s very interesting to see all the characters being living in a world mixture of realistic and fantastic elements.

The books that I like the most from this author are: El coronel no tiene quien le escriba, it’s sad story about a colonel who, after wartime, waited for his expected retirement, as well as a letter from his son who was supposedly dead.

Cien años de soledad, one of his most famous works; and one of my favourite books, crónicas de una muerte anunciada, a story that keeps us excited from the start, expecting someone could prevent Santiago Nazar’s death even though we know he would die from the beginning of the book.

Gabriel Garcia Marquez died on the 14th of April of this year, the world mourns for his death, even though there will be no more publication from him, he will still be one of my favourite writers.   

The artist that I admire.

The artist that I admire is Sergio Larraín, because I adore the photography and he is one of the photographer more important in our country, but it wasn’t always this way because he was stranger for many years here. His father is a famous modernist architect.

Sergio Larraín photography studied in Míchigan University, he come back to Chile in 1951, his first exhibition was in Santiago in 1953 and his first book “El rectángulo en la mano” was published in 1963 and it´s very coveted.

His photography are filling of emotions, beauty, frankness and close because I think that he is a very creative person and for this he can manage it. I like that they are in white and black because it is more impressive.

His photography are in many museums in many countries like New York, Frances, Brazil and Chile of course!

The most important for me is that he lived in Ovalle from 70’s and he died there in 2012. Ovalle is a place where I live and I really like.
