Dreaming in Color


Pino Daeni, pintor italiano, foca-se essencialmente, em toda a sua obra, no corpo humano, oferecendo especial destaque ao corpo feminino.
Escolhi esta obra, intitulada Dreaming in Color pela contradição que vejo entre o nome atribuído e a imagem que tenho diante de mim.
O nome sugere-me uma figura sonhadora, que talvez pela aparência escolhida devesse passar uma imagem sedutora e forte de quem se deixa guiar pelos seus sonhos, os quais prentede viver intensamente e sem deixar fugir por entre os dedos cada oportunidade.
No entanto, ao olhar esta imagem pela primeira vez, longe ainda de saber qual o nome desta obra, tinha diante dos meus olhos uma outra história. Na figura, deparei-me com aquilo que julguei ser uma mulher cansada, cansada de esperar por algo ou alguém, que acaba por adormecer de exaustão. Talvez nesta perspectiva, o sonho seja o seu refúgio, uma última tentativa de encontrar o que nunca irá chegar.
Acredito que esta ambigudiade que vejo na obra foi o que a tornou, a meus olhos, apelativa e maravilhosamente misteriosa.

Conversations with a Killer: The Ted Bundy Tapes

This is not the sort of show which I usually talk about on this blog. However, as a psychologist, I’m usually quite curious in regards to criminals and their minds; and one of these days I started watching this documentary on Netflix . Taking into consideration the kind of thing this is, I can’t say I ‘liked’ it. I mean what you see in there is nothing to like, but I was rather terrified, which is probably the usual response. Nonetheless, it was definitely a good documentary. The eyes of a killer Everything displayed in this story was terrible. The descriptions, Bundy’s posture, everything seemed like some sort of horror show, putting into perspective what we may consider to be lucky or unlucky in this life. Before I even start watching it, I read somewhere that this was the kind of thing you shouldn’t watch alone. Sounds accurate right now. At the time, and considering my, mostly academic, experience, I didn’t think that this could actually be so upsetting. ...

Young Sheldon – A Heartfelt and Hilarious Journey

  Young Sheldon is a delightful surprise, blending humor, heart, and a touch of nostalgia. As a prequel to The Big Bang Theory , the show offers insight into the childhood of Sheldon Cooper, one of the most iconic characters in modern TV.  A Show That Grows Beyond Sheldon While you may start watching due to curiosity about Sheldon's early years, it soon becomes clear that this is not just about his childhood. The show includes an incredible variety of characters with their own charm and depth. Mary (Sheldon's religious yet compassionate mother), George (his often misunderstood father), and his siblings, Missy and Georgie, are all given their own moments to shine.  The cast and their chemistry make this show stand out. You start to care about each character's struggles and triumphs. This show quickly stands on its own as a heartfelt, family-driven sitcom. Especially in its last seasons, the show becomes a touching portrayal of small-town life, family dynamics, and persona...

House of the Dragon: Season 2 - a Matter of Good Characters

  As a fan of the original Game of Thrones , I approached the second season of House of the Dragon with high hopes. Unfortunately, I found it a bit boring compared to its predecessor.  The intricate political drama and the rich character development that made Game of Thrones a global phenomenon seem to be lacking here. Still, the show features some compelling characters who hold my interest. Daemon Targaryen Daemon Targaryen remains one of the most intriguing characters in the series. Although his arc in this season isn't as strong as before, he still commands the screen with his charisma and unpredictability.  Daemon's complex personality, oscillating between villainy and heroism, keeps viewers guessing his true intentions. His relationship with Rhaenyra and his struggle for power add depth to his character. He is, no doubt, a central figure in the unfolding drama. Aemond Targaryen Aemond steps into the spotlight in the second season, bringing a new level of intensity ...
