Mapi Rivera, en esos escenarios, buscados, explorados, elegidos con una exquisita sensibilidad \u2013ampliada en largos periodos de lecturas reflexivas y meditaciones penetrantes hasta llegar al vaciamiento- nos pone en contacto con ese yo interior que, para emerger, necesita la chispa que \u00fanicamente algunos artistas, como ella, son capaces de prender.<\/p>\n<p>\u00bfPuede una aguja enhebrar al sol?

Looking through it, I saw a beautiful glow and dazzling light. <\/em>Ibn Arabi<\/p>\n<p><em>I have covered myself with a veil but I am still naked. I cannot hide my innocence. I have covered myself with a veil so as not to dazzle you. Can you bear my incandescent state? <\/em>Mapi Rivera<\/p>\n<p>As soon as I arrived at the Ifitry artists' residence, I was drawn to the coast and the force of the ocean. Every evening and every sunrise, as if it were a prayer ritual, I would go down to the beach for photographic sessions. I spent the rest of the day, reviewing photographs, walking around, and reading a book by Ibn Arabi that I had brought along for the trip.<\/p>\n<p>His texts moved me deeply. Some of his poems exploded within me, fully coinciding with my perceptions and experiences. I wrote them down in my journal, along with other writings and drawings that flowed inspired by the reading and the environment around me. One of the poems of Ibn Arabi that has ended up giving title to this project says that; <em>The illuminations of the mystics are like seas without shores, oceans of light without limits.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>However, if the mystic wants to be able to return from that journey to Infinity, he\/she has to keep the shore in mind. Likewise, the creative person who plunges into the sea of inspired ideas must return to shore to transcribe his\/her experience.<\/p>\n<p>I positioned myself on the shore, a frontier place that joins the ocean of the unknown with the land of the familiar things, to take these images, always directing myself to the sunlight. Also, twilight and dawn are interstitial times that border between night and day, promoting, according to Sufism, visionary experience and angelic appearances.<\/p>\n<p>La luz que nos permite ver, dec\u00eda Ibn Arabi, es en s\u00ed misma invisible, los colores la manifiestan. Los velos de color blanco, amarillo, rojo, azul y verde que utilizo para las sesiones fotogr\u00e1ficas ocultan y muestran esta realidad invisible. Mantienen en tensi\u00f3n la paradoja que s\u00f3lo se desvela mediante la uni\u00f3n m\u00edstica.<\/p>\n<p>Precisamente, el t\u00e9rmino \u00e1rabe \u201cyilwa\u201d que quiere decir \u201cquitar el velo a la novia en la noche de bodas\u201d est\u00e1 relacionado etimol\u00f3gicament con la palabra \u201cteofan\u00eda\u201d, manifestaci\u00f3n divina.<\/p>\n<p>As the days passed in that isolated place, my gaze was becoming saturated with light; on one hand, of interior light inspired by the reading of the poems of the mystic Analus\u00ed and, on the other hand, of the exterior light that I contemplated during sunrise and sunset.<\/p>\n<p>Fue entonces, cuando comenc\u00e9 a sentir, cada vez con m\u00e1s intensidad, la presencia sutil de Ibn Arabi. Hasta que un mediod\u00eda, en que intentaba conciliar el sue\u00f1o, llegu\u00e9 a oir su voz y su pregunt\u00e1 me atraves\u00f3 como un rel\u00e1mpago; <em>\u00bfPuede una aguja enhebrar al sol?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This question stung my heart and a pulsating, living and joyous light pierced my empty chest. I understood at that moment that to baste the sun, to reattach myself to its light, first I had to be hollow from me.<\/p>\n<p>By giving myself without reservation, the ritual of discovering myself before the sun, of revealing myself before its light, made full sense. Every sunrise and sunset I celebrated a sacred wedding. I had become a naked bride, brigth, free, without fear of immersing myself in an ocean of light without limits.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc-row-container container\"><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"store \/ tiendaTexto 1Texto 2Texto 1MARES SIN ORILLASMar\u00eda Jes\u00fas Buil Salas \u00a1Qu\u00e9 hermosa eres, Tierra, y cu\u00e1n sublime! \u00a1Qu\u00e9 perfecta es tu obediencia a la luz, y qu\u00e9 noble tu sumisi\u00f3n al sol!
