Art as therapy for the soul

posted in: legacies, Thoughts | 0

I am an architect and urban planner. Design is the soul of my career, and creativity is one of my qualities that is constantly evolving in me in all kinds of projects.

For various reasons, My family and I have had to move around different countries. Due to these circumstances and that I have a young child I am in constant reinvention development of my profession with the contribution that my studies have given me but also and especially with the life experience for which I transit.

I really like writing and considering all the cities and towns that I have met throughout this walk for almost 15 years, I occurred to me to share it. It was so I believed, More than three years ago, My own architecture blog and places, Where I include comments, information, Photographs, tips and experiences of these extraordinary sites.


Two years ago, I had a wonderful experience. In parallel to my profession and closely related to it, Start an independent project that includes both object design, as the illustration and graph on different surfaces such as wood, stone, porcelain, ceramics. About, I realized that my experience could be of good use for many people who for different reasons were going through similar situations. Situations that I do not qualify as good or bad, but that in a way they could generate stress, mental fatigue or some kind of uncertainty or restlessness.
It was then that I began to develop the idea of ​​proposing art and creativity as a way to connect with our interior and find that necessary tranquility in our day to day, since I deeply believe that we all have some creativity and that art as "therapy", It can help us unleash certain knots thus improving our quality of life.


At present and thanks to the invitation of a beloved friend, who valued and believed in my work, I teach in a creative atelier aimed at women from different countries that arrive in Switzerland, which focuses on integration, Welfare and health, developing the creativity of the participants.


I have created a blog to show my jobs that also disappound by other social networks such as Instagram and Facebook. I also participate in markets and organize samples where who wishes can acquire a product, be interested in participating in the Atelier or simply asking me about this proposal. I will gladly answer those who have concerns on this subject. https://nativaoriginaldesign.com/

My mother tongue is Spanish, I also speak Italian, English and German.
I would deeply like to be able to give my knowledge and above all share and spread my personal experience that I understand could be of great contribution and help for all those who are in search and awakening. I'm sure art is a good way to achieve it.
