day 2



"the lim chhour shopp", karangahape road, auckland city.
segundo dia.
no tengo idea que hacer!
pero ya se que justamente la idea es no tener idea.

josefina vino a casa hoy y decidimos pensar en algo juntas.
salimos como un dia cualquiera a hacer las cosas de un dia cualquiera: como ir al supermercado.
esta vez, no buscando algo que comprar, si no, en busca de que algo nos compre a nosotras.
lo que nos llamo la atencion fueron la variedad de frutas y verduras de formas, colores y nombres raros que hay ahi.
"persimmon", "paw paw", "feijoa".
las frutas nos bajaban como monedas.
todo se transformo en un campo de juego.
de repente, nos sentiamos en un casino, rodeadas de numeros, de ofertas, de frutas.
cual, cual, cual?
habriamos de llevarnoslas todas sin nisiquiera conocerlas.
nosotras ya no elegiamos a las frutas, ellas nos elegian a nosotras.
la musica y las luces se apagaron cuando se acerco alguien del supermercado a decirnos que no podiamos sacarle fotos a la mercaderia. (gracias igual, querido, ya le saque fotos a todas).
asi que nos volvimos a casa y me puse a pintar este jackpot de frutas.

no se cual sera la fruta que me elija maniana.


the lim chhour shopp", karangahape road, auckland city.
second day.
i don't have any idea on what to do!
but i know precisely, that the idea is not having an idea.

josefina came home today, and we decided to think of something together.
we went to the street like any day to do the every-day things: like going to the supermarket.
this time, not looking for something to buy, but looking for something to buy us.
the variety of fruits and vegetables in the shop of shapes, colors and names called immediately our attention.
"persimmon", "paw paw", "feijoa".
fruits came down as coins.
everything was transformed in a playing field.
we found ourselves in a casino, surrounded by numbers, offers, fruits.
which one, which one, which one?
we would have taken them all without even knowing them.
we weren't picking the fruits but the fruits were picking us.
the music and the lights went off when a person from the supermarket told us we couldn't take photos of the food. (thanks honey, we've already photographed them all).
so we went back home and i started painting this jackfruit.


don't know what fruit will pick me tomorrow.
