She expresses how color is both a source of inspiration and a devotion. She finds encouragement in Georgia O\u2019Keefe&#8217;s work reflecting the relationship between humanity and nature, which was produced in the isolation of the New Mexico desert. Sof\u00eda comments on the importance of collaborating artistically in an honest way and shares her experiences with the Suarez Twins. The artist believes this process can bring life to what has been abandoned. In the following capsules we will hear about her observation exercises and contemplative explorations of decaying Cupey leaves. <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-mobile-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1032\" aria-expanded=\"false\">Cap.2<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1032\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"2\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1032\" tabindex=\"0\" hidden=\"hidden\"><p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/512538902\" width=\"700\" height=\"500\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff;\"><br><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff;\">On this occasion, Sof\u00eda Maldonado invites us into her studio-garden. After a few weeks under quarantine, she discovered the studio and garden were symbiotic. The garden, containing flowering plants and herbs, is home to a cupey tree. This tree is native to the Caribbean region. Its fruit are eaten by bats, its resin is used as an adhesive, and its thick fleshy leaves have been incised, since time immemorial, with messages and drawings. The Ta\u00edno, Puerto Rican amerindians, used to make balls out of the resin to play batey.<span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">1<\/span> The leaves falling from the cupey tree inspired a series of photographs and observation drills that the artist decided to share with her audience, friends, and family on social media during the quarantine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff;\">Sof\u00eda begins each day with her Kundalini Yoga practice. This type of yoga combines physical exercises and meditative practices with an emphasis on consciousness.<span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">2<\/span> It is known as &#8220;the yoga of awareness\u201d.<span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">3<\/span> The observation exercises she conducts with the cupey leaves are aligned with the aim of Kundalini practice: \u201cto awaken the full potential of human awareness in each individual\u201d.<span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">4<\/span> Artists use observation drills to practice and develop mindful, focused, active observation of a model, human or otherwise. The artist must be fully engaged and concentrated on<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff;\">the formal qualities of the subject: shape, color, texture, composition. This skill must be cultivated constantly because knowledge of the subject matter and memories will interfere with the faithful reproduction of what is studied. An artist may adjust the parameters of their observation drills to suit their particular stylistic needs or interests. Sofia is particularly interested in the unique shape and color transformations the cupey leaves undergo as they dry. We will see the result of her creative process in the final capsule.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;\">Bibliography<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt; color: #ffffff;\">McCrae, James. \u201cIntroduction to Kundalini: The Yoga of Awareness.\u201d Huffpost.&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"color: #ffffff; letter-spacing: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;\">Published March 26, 2015.

She seems to be inviting us to leave the studio in order to explore and appreciate the city&#8217;s least welcoming locations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff;\">Sof\u00eda is constantly producing work, which, for the last few years, has been centered on abstraction. Music, nature and urban art have been essential elements in her artistic practice. Her interest in the urban landscape has inspired the creation of murals focused on the idea of neglect and disuse that aim to spark the spectator\u2019s curiosity. Vivid color and energetic gestural marks are not meant to embellish, but rather indicate the abandonment of a structure or space. Sof\u00eda is particularly interested in creating work that motivates passers-by to explore the city\u2019s painted areas, such as bridges and staircases. On occasion, she has arranged noise music performances to accompany her interventions, because this style is analogous to her visual expression and the gathering encourages a sense of community.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff;\">In <em>Kala\u00f1a<\/em>, Sof\u00eda produced an ephemeral piece in which she painted the interior of a deserted tobacco factory. This work was part of \u201cCrom\u00e1tica: Caguas a Color\u201d celebrated in 2016.<span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">1<\/span> The factory was open which allowed the audience to enter the work of art and participate in a series of workshops, lectures, musical performances and tours of the Savarona community.<span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">2<\/span> Traversing the space the spectator must concentrate on the formal qualities of the intervention and their sensory and internal experiences. Through the abstraction of color, Sof\u00eda can create respite from the city\u2019s constant media onslaught and an environment where the viewer can reconsider the nonfunctional structures that surround them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff;\">The Sala de Exposiciones del Plata (S.E.P.) was another intervention in the <em>Kala\u00f1a <\/em>series produced for \u201cDorado a Color\u201d. The artist painted the interior of the exhibit hall which displayed a series of nature watercolors she produced during her Artist Residency at arte_FITS.Foundation in 2015.<span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">3<\/span> She complemented the hall and the exhibit with a mural painted under the bridge next to the S.E.P. This project generated opportunities for creating murals at the Museum of Latin American Art in Los Angeles, California and at urban art festivals in New Mexico and Massachusetts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #ffffff;\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;\">Bibliography<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt; color: #ffffff;\">arte_FITS.Foundation. \u201cDorado a Color y Proyecto Kala\u00f1a.\u201d Accessed April 22, 2020.<br>\nhttp:\/\/artefits.org\/ephemeralart\/index.php\/dorado-a-color\/.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt; color: #ffffff;\">Sofia Maldonado (@sofiamaldo). \u201cBID x @museomapr.\u201d Instagram photo.

arte_FITS.Foundation began in 2015 with her participation in the Artist Residency. The following year, for \u201cDorado a Color\u201d the Sala de Exposiciones del Plata exhibited the 19 watercolors Sof\u00eda produced during her residency.<span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">1<\/span> On that occasion the exhibit hall was converted by the artist into a work of art through a color intervention with a sprayer machine as part of her project \u201cKala\u00f1a\u201d. She also painted a mural next to the exhibition hall under the Rio La Plata Bridge. In 2018, Sof\u00eda created <em>Color Field <\/em>for the 3rd Edition of the Art in Golf Triennial held by arte_FITS.Foundation.<span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">2<\/span> She applied vibrant colors with graffiti techniques to golf carts to represent the contrast between urban culture and the golf environment and encourage reflection on the effects of consumerism on the natural environment.<span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">3<\/span> Last year she collaborated with Venezuelan artist Mandy Porras and arte_FITS to paint a public urban intervention under the bridge along Antonio \u201cChi chi\u201d Rodr\u00edguez Road (693) in Dorado. Sof\u00eda\u2019s latest exhibition at the Sala de Exposiciones del Plata has been postponed due to the quarantine. \u201cLas Chicas de Sof\u00eda: Una Mirada Introspectiva\u201d is a retrospective representing ordinary women produced between 2010 and 2017. This exhibition will include her \u201c42nd St. Mural\u201d a controversial piece created by the Time Square Alliance, Cuban Artists Fund and the Rockefeller Brothers <span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">4<\/span> and previously exhibited at the Ringling Museum and the Museo de Arte Contempor\u00e1neo de Puerto Rico (Puerto Rican Contemporary Art Museum).<span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">5<\/span><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-a972a0b elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"a972a0b\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-c4c3329\" data-id=\"c4c3329\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-23e34e9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"23e34e9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"color: #999999; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\">Sof\u00eda is an artist, designer and Professor who was born in Puerto Rico to a Cuban mother in 1984. She has a BFA from Escuela de Artes Pl\u00e1sticas y Dise\u00f1o de Puerto Rico and an MFA from the Pratt Institute.<span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">7<\/span> The artist lives and works between New York and Puerto Rico where her workshop is currently located in Miramar, and is constantly traveling and producing work.<span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">8<\/span> Her commitment to Puerto Rico\u2019s cultural development has led to the establishment of HIELO, an artist residency, and Open Studio Project, an artist run space.<span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">9<\/span>&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #999999; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\">The artist\u2019s work consists of paintings on a variety of surfaces, which include paper, canvas, wood, and skateboards, with watercolor, acrylic, spray paint and her sprayer machine. Sof\u00eda also varies her scale greatly as she creates on traditional surfaces as well as vehicles and buildings, both inside and out. She combines her characteristic fluid brushwork and dripping with graffiti techniques and an electrifying palette to represent nature, women and the reggaeton and trap subcultures. Her color interventions within and on building exteriors refer to decay and abandonment.<span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">10<\/span>&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #999999; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\">In this first installment of the FITS Capsules, \u201cCreating from a distance\u201d, Sof\u00eda Maldonado introduces herself and discusses her most prominent themes: nature and women. She expresses how color is both a source of inspiration and a devotion. She finds encouragement in Georgia O\u2019Keefe&#8217;s work reflecting the relationship between humanity and nature, which was produced in the isolation of the New Mexico desert. Sof\u00eda comments on the importance of collaborating artistically in an honest way and shares her experiences with the Suarez Twins. The artist believes this process can bring life to what has been abandoned. In the following capsules we will hear about her observation exercises and contemplative explorations of decaying Cupey leaves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><em><strong><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #999999; font-size: 8pt;\">Text by Irma Arzola &amp; Marinelly Bello<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-d7f938b elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"d7f938b\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-075e6c7\" data-id=\"075e6c7\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-21646be elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"21646be\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #999999;\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;\">Bibliography<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p><p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt; color: #999999;\">arte_FITS.Foundation. \u201cDorado a Color y Proyecto Kala\u00f1a.\u201d Accessed April 22, 2020. http:\/\/artefits.org\/ephemeralart\/index.php\/dorado-a-color\/.<\/span><\/p><p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt; color: #999999;\">arte_FITS.Foundation. \u201cSof\u00eda Maldonado: Color Field.\u201d Published November 11, 2018.
