CONCURSO DE DIBUJO PRE/POST CUARENTENA

Esta mañana, tras una votación en la que han participado los miembros de la AFA, el claustro, equipo directivo y departamento de Dibujo del centro, se ha fallado el concurso resultando ganadores los siguientes trabajos artísticos:

ENHORABUENA 

A TOD@S LOS PARTICIPANTES 

Y EN ESPECIAL A

Miguel Valverde Alcalde (1ºA de bachillerato ) 


Es una obra hecha con lápices acuarelables sobre papel A4, gramaje 200 g. La idea principal se basa en un corazón dividido por sentimientos opuestos. En el lado izquierdo, podemos apreciar el simbolismo de la naturaleza anterior al coronavirus. A su vez, los globos representarían la libertad que teníamos (sin horarios, mascarillas, etc). Por el contrario, en el lado derecho podemos apreciar como el tiempo pasa despacio, sin apenas poder disfrutar de la vida, atados a una cadena, como encarcelados. La tirita simboliza todo el esfuerzo que hacen miles de sanitarios cada día por nosotros. 

Estos son algunas de las emociones contrapuestas que he experimentado estos últimos meses. Los colores acompañan a los sentimientos.


Seleccionada Categoría A 

Marina Escribano López (2ºD ESO)



Before our heroes were from the science fiction, but now we value those who are our true heroes: the doctors.




Seleccionada Categoría B

María Vargas Sánchez (1º B Bachillerato)

BANKSY'S TRIBUTE TO HERO HOSPITAL WORKERS


Una obra de Banksy titulada Game Changer ha aparecido en el Hospital General de Southampton, al sur de Inglaterra, acompañada de un mensaje del artista a los sanitarios que luchan contra la COVID-19.
«Gracias por todo lo que estáis haciendo. Espero que esto ilumine un poco este lugar, incluso estando en blanco y negro», ha escrito el popular artista cuya identidad se desconoce.


Anonymous artist Banksy has donated a painting to honor hero hospital workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

The monochrome illustration depicts a young boy playing with a caped nurse, who is wearing a face mask. the nurse has her arm outstretched as she ‘flies’ through the sky. meanwhile, the child’s more conventional toy superheroes, batman and spiderman, sit redundant in a waste paper basket.

FOTOMONTAJES DIGITALES COVID-19

Crónicas Con-fabuladas para tiempos 

de pandemia por Manuel Pérez Báñez


Proyecto inicial de 15 fotomontajes digitales que toman como base e inspiración algunas conocidas obras de arte para reflejar en clave de humor y ligeros toques de ironía y surrealismo, el actual e inédito escenario generado por esta pandemia del Covid-19. (Click on the image)

Crónicas Con-fabuladas para tiempos de pandemia 2


No se esconda maese Velázquez, que sé que anda por ahí y le tengo que multar. Ni Orden de Santiago ni leches, es ya la tercera vez que vengo y le advierto que no va a venir ninguna infanta a posar y el cuadro lo tiene que terminar on line, que aquí no se puede estar. ¿On-liiiine, entendido? Qué dificil es entenderse con estos artistas, joé...

DRAWING CHALLENGE CONTEST


IMPORTANTE: SE PRORROGA EL PLAZO DE PRESENTACIÓN DE DIBUJOS HASTA EL

PRE-POST QUARANTINE DRAWING CHALLENGE

As of recently, a lot of us are seeing a ton of unprecedented change in our lives.

We encourage you to get creative with your concept! 
Remember to share your story in the caption so we can see the ways in which our lives parallel each other's. Scroll down for submission and prize details, along with how to upload your artwork.

There was a time when life was fun, free, and there was happiness. And then there was COVID-19. Separation. Suspicion. Distrust. Distance. Masks... I long for the old days.

Procreate - my psyche before and after COVID-19



This is a diptych of MY quarantine....well before quarantine (during my exams) I was TOTALLY stressed and tensed 'cause of my exams but after the school closed (which was due to the virus) I had a real benefit because I overcame that stress and got a quality time to spend on my art which was really calming (for me).... Hope you like it:)



I was at a boarding school in Rome for a year, and it felt like an escape, i made great friends and lived freely (in color) but the virus meant i was to come home to Dubai, where my family lives. It just hurts to be back to this place i was so desperate to leave, its like i barely got a taste of freedom, and i'll never see it again. (or at least until i leave for university in 2 years).



I am actually a Covid patient. I was enjoying my life as this year was nothing but great to me. Spending time with my loved ones, reading books on Sundays etc. Then at the end of March, I became very sick. I had to spent 30hours on the ER floor, as there were no available beds (it was the beginning of this pandemic in Madrid and we were too many in need of medical attention). When I was actually given a bed, I was in a room with ten another patients and four nurses 24/7. I was lucky to get stable enough after a week and continue my treatment at home (I am currently still on a sick leave). The most important thing that I want to say about this, is that everyone was wonderful. Patients were trying to help each other and health workers were not stopping for a minute. Doctors are incredible and hard working, but for me the biggest heroes were the nurses. They had a lot of work with us and they were nothing but wonderful even though they had to wear the crazy yellow spacesuit. That is why I chose to do the after drawing about them and how I remember them. I feel very fortunate to have gotten better thanks to their hard work and the support from my family and friends. We applaud in Spain every day at 20h, to show support and I am very happy to be applauding at my home these days. Stay safe, stay at home.



A slightly overdramatic and fatalistic look at the perception of work and life before and during the bizarre times of Covid19.
