When we talk about Días de arte, we talk about different things at the same time. Technically , this is an artist book, but at the same time, it has got something else, or even it has things that artists books don’t have. Through its pages, we are able to know the artist’s evolution, but we know how the artist way of being is at the same time. Besides this, the book’s style is inspired in how Rosa is, giving it some artistic personality and following an asymmetric, dynamic and freedom line. These elements are very characteristic in the artist’s work. That is why, as Rosa’s work, every single page is different.
All of this makes us realize images are merged with what the book is telling us. Words and pictures go hand in hand.
Personally, this project has taught me many things. And I am satisfied because of the fact I have learned, I have learned and I have learned.
Also, I know this project is not finished in chapter 52. Rosa and me will keep working together on this, because she is still writing and working, and this book will finish the day Rosa stops painting.
I have to add that, without the unconditional support of Rosa and my everlasting/eternal colleague Cristina Hidalgo (prologue’s book writer) this book wouldn’t have been the same. And this reminds me how grateful is team work and why I chose to be a graphic designer.
In conclusion, I Just see positive aspects in this project and I can say there will be more days of art.
