Last week an imminent mental block I decided to go for a walk the beautiful Medellin, but the approach was to know where I was going to lose, because losing is when in fact know the city because it forces me to be a little more resources, look for the entrance and exit to the crossroads, and street address.
In this search I found the cemetery in San Pedro, tena a vague reference about, comments made by people and some events held there, but nothing of substance, I began by asking permission to take pictures, this permission included not having a picture of a tomb in particular but all around it but some do deserve to spend time and an image to them no more.
I met so many different collective imagination of that found in other cemeteries, the soccer team or at least membership in the bar of this is so strong that some graves are adorned with several representative elements of these and play a big visual dominance left no room for another kind of representation . The music immediately caught my attention, it was only a timba sensitive to this attack was the fifth symphony of Beethoven in a rudimentary audio device but with a high Walloons, in short everything sensorial attack for me.
As for the visual, some statues with certain provisions morphological gave me a very pleasing feeling powerful, cross unconventional motifs as varied and rich in ornaments and materials, statues with penetrating eyes, the most moving letters or obituaries that were argued to birthdays of people as if they could cross the barrier imposed by the Grim Reaper and I came to the most there.
crucified Christs that show movement that is no longer just a religious icon and become a figure outlines, Christian symbolism that only reinforces the commitment we have the families of the deceased with religion and even plastic flowers that enrich the eye in endless wealth aesthetics.
But the most shocking was the letter written by a son to his father as if this still remain alive, that is, drawn and written a letter to stick on the refrigerator or wall of the home or work, do not know if the child has an idea that is death but it seemed so natural and full of love that seemed very likely that the father was given.
In order to visually rich way to enrich myself and I had that day, the head turning in search of many questions, why the team shirt for the birthday cards? And many more but aesthetic and emotional experience helped me to understand certain behaviors of people to death and stopped teaching about them but this can only be fully understood when this experience to weigh upon me and I hope I do not happen in decades.
Here are some pictures or those that caught my attention, well, much more:
