Story

On July 28 I am doing my second triathlon in London and, just like last year, I would like to seize the opportunity to raise funds for another organisation I love: Lon-art Creative

I have been part of Lon-art since María (its founder) and I met in Vienna back in 2010-11. She was hired by the Spanish Embassy to run workshops in schools and, as I was doing an internship at the Embassy at that time, I was asked to be her interpreter. When I started considering moving to London in 2013, I messaged her hoping she would give me job. Lo and behold, as a small arts and activism organisation... you guessed it... there was no money! I moved nevertheless and I have been part of the organisation since, which María and I now direct together.

After having organised eight exhibitions and numerous workshops and talks, we have just launched our newest project, which will consolidate our experience working with women activist artists for the last six years: Sheroes Interventions.

Sheroes Interventions aims to contribute to reducing violence against women and girls and celebrating women hidden herstories.

We will do so by partnering with different public institutions (from universities and colleges to local authorities and NHS trusts) to display artworks by women activist artists aiming to engage communities on this difficult and challenging topic through an initial visual conversation.

While we apply for funding to be able to get the team together and make this a long-lasting effort, we are working on a pilot. So all the funds raised, will go towards it!

Thank you!! xx

Y ahora en español...

El 28 de Julio voy a hacer mi segunda triatlón en Londres y, como el año pasado, me gustaría usar la oportunidad para recaudar fondos para otra organización que tiene un lugar my especial en mi corazón: Lon-art Creative.

Soy parte del equipo de Lon-art desde 2010-2011, cuando conocí a María (su fundadora) en Viena. La Embajada de España en Viena — donde yo estaba haciendo prácticas — había contratado a María para hacer talleres de arte en colegios y me pidieron que fuera su intérprete.

Cuando empecé a considerar mudarme a Londres en 2013, escribí a María para ver si había trabajo en Lon-art, pero, como organización de arte y activismo (muy) pequeña, no había dinero. Aún a día de hoy nos reímos recordando el atrevimiento e inocencia de mi pregunta. De cualquier modo, me mudé a Londres y no he dejado de ser parte de la organización, la cual María y yo ahora co-dirigimos.

Tras haber organizado ocho exposiciones e infinidad de talleres y charlas, acabamos de lanzar un nuevo proyecto que va consolidar nuestra experiencia desde 2018: Sheroes Intervenciones.

A través de intervenciones artísticas-activistas en diferentes instituciones publicas como universidades, ayuntamientos locales y hospitales, generaremos conversaciones sobre un tema tan complejo como la violencia de género.

Mientras buscamos financiación publica para crear el equipo y hacer de este un proyecto de larga duración, estamos preparando un piloto. ¡Así que todas vuestras donaciones contribuirán a hacerlo realidad!

Mil gracias!
