| The City Hall and the center of the old town seen from the Mont des Arts. |
Brussels is a wonderful city full of monuments and exciting cultural life. It's amanzing to see pieces of history in nearly every corner mixed with modern new architecture. I feel so inspired there thought I feel that I am more alone than ever, perhaps it's the language(supersonic French) or the hectic life or perhaps it's just me alienating myself.
I love the fact that you can tied a monkey in your head, wear it as a hat and no one will look at you for a second. The fact that everyone is completly and ultimatly into their own worlds. I draw people in my way and back from Brussels, mainly in the trein and I found out that's not that easy, after a week and a half, I've been caught once by someone who woke up suddenly and our eyes met. It was embarrassing but I smiled and go on like nothing. It is so cool to see people in terms of lines and shapes, everything else fades like beauty,age, gender,ect. I was always looking for beauty but now as beauty has denied me, I just look for willing subjects for my art.
I always walk the beautiful Mont de Arts down to the trein station, frecuently, there's music and tourist photographing frenetically for a perfect picture. I feel that I'm not only discovering a city but little by little I'm discovering a new phase on my life.
