SPANISH

La belleza se crea, y solo los artistas muy avezados; aquellos despojados de los convencionalismos y los estereotipos mediáticos, saben que la belleza no es sinónimo de perfección, como vulgarmente se cree, sino un genial trenzado de defectos y virtudes.

Resaltemos, de entrada, que el rostro de la modelo de este retrato es interesante de por sí, y su más importante materia prima. Lidia Vives se explota a sí misma, tramo por tramo, desde la cabellera hasta los hombros, para lograr efectos llenos, sí, de belleza, pero con un algo teatral que hace de sus maravillosas fotos auténticos performances. La que aquí nos ocupa es una de las más sencillas, al menos en apariencia. Vemos a la modelo enfrentando retadora a la lente, con la cabellera vuelta un tormentoso amasijo; una melena arremolinada en torno a un rostro pequeño que sin embargo ostenta rasgos vistosos como las cejas leoninas, los grandes ojos y la boca maquillada como una frambuesa. Hay en esta imagen algo desafiante, el atisbo de una muñeca que se rebela a ser perfecta y permanecer inmóvil. Hay, también, algo mordaz: la chica que se rebela a ser perfecta, que no delinea sus cejas a la moda y trastoca el maquillaje en subversión...pero, como en la mayoría de los autorretratos de Lidia, también salen a relucir la melancolía, la ternura y el carácter.

El Blanco y Negro, al que Lidia no es demasiado afecta, contribuye a otorgarle un dramatismo eléctrico a un retrato, de por sí, impactante. Esta mujer nos mira desde su refugio, nos desafía a cambiarla, a moverla...pero al mismo tiempo presenta la intimidante seguridad de quien sabe cual es su lugar en la vida, su meta.

La perfección no necesariamente es hermosa, en cambio, la imperfección calculada, lúdica, expresiva, lo será invariablemente. Lidia nos brinda una preciosa imagen de quién es Lidia realmente, pero, al mismo tiempo, se asume otra que solo puede ser producto de la imaginación. Grandiosa!

ENGLISH

The beauty is created , and only very seasoned artists , those stripped of convention and media stereotypes, know that beauty is not synonymous with perfection , as is commonly believed , but a great twisted and weaknesses.

Us note, first, that the model' face in this portrait is interesting in itself , and its most important raw material. Lives are exploited Lidia itself section by section , from the hair to the shoulders , to achieve full effect , yes , of beauty, but with a somewhat theatrical makes her wonderful photos authentic performances . The concern here is one of the simplest , at least in appearance . We see the model facing challenging to the lens, with the back a stormy tangle hair , a mane swirling around a small face holds yet showy traits as leonine eyebrows, large eyes and mouth as raspberry. There is in this something challenging , the hint of a doll who rebels to be perfect and stay still . There are also some scathing : the girl who rebels to be perfect , it does not delineate their eyebrows to fashion and makeup subverts the subversion ... but like most self-portraits of Lydia, also come to light the melancholy , tenderness and character.

B & W, which is not too affected Helps to give her a dramatic power. This woman looks at us from his refuge , challenges us to change , to move it ... but at the same time presents the daunting security who knows what their place in life , her goal.

Perfection is not necessarily beautiful , however , calculated imperfection , playful , expressive , it will be invariably. Lydia gives us a beautiful picture of who is really Lidia , but at the same time, it assumes another that can only be the product of imagination. Grandiose!
