         IF/SI- Rudyard Kipling

 IF you can keep

your head

when all about you

Are losing theirs and

blaming it on you.

IF you can trust

yourself when

all men doubt you,

But make allowance

for their doubting too

(...)

SI puedes mantener

la cabeza en su sitio

cuando todos a tu alrededor

la pierden

y te culpan a ti.

SI puedes confiar

en ti mismo

cuando todos dudan de ti

pero también dejas lugar

para sus dudas

(...)

The Poetry of Color by Jairo Carthy

"Poetry and painting have always been sisters, speaking different languages to convey the same truth. While Rudyard Kipling sculpted a monument to human fortitude with words in his poem "If," the art of Claudia Patricia López Osornio seeks to capture that same essence through color, form, and texture.

Why unite these two disciplines in a single book? Because a modern painting is not just an image; it is a visual response to Kipling's "If." Where the poet speaks of keeping one's head, the artist finds balance in composition. Where the verse speaks of rebuilding with worn-out tools, the painting reveals the beauty of matter-the relief and the layering of pigments that narrate a story of strength.

In this book, the poem ceases to be a static text and becomes an atmosphere. The works presented here do not merely illustrate the poem; they inhabit it. They are the reflection of that "unforgiving minute" which the artist has managed to fill with sixty seconds of pure creation".

Excerpt from the prologue.

La poesía del color por Jairo Carthy

"La poesía y la pintura han sido, desde siempre, hermanas que hablan distintos idiomas para decir la misma verdad. Mientras RudyardKipling esculpió con palabras un monumento a la entereza humana en su poema “If”’, el arte de Claudia Patricia López Osornio busca capturar esa misma esencia a través del color, la forma y la textura.

Mientras Rudyard Kipling esculpió con palabras un monumento a la entereza humana en su poema "If"', el arte de Claudia Patricia López Osornio busca capturar esa misma esencia a través del color, la forma y la textura.

¿Por qué unir estas dos disciplinas en un solo libro? Porque un cuadro moderno no es solo una imagen; es una respuesta visual al "Si..." de Kipling. Donde el poeta dice mantener la cabeza en su sitio, la artista plástica encuentra el equilibrio en la composición. Donde el verso habla de reconstruir con herramientas desgastadas, la pintura nos muestra la belleza de la materia, el relieve y la superposición de capas que narran una historia de fortaleza.

En este libro, el poema deja de ser un texto estático para convertirse en atmósfera. Las obras aquí presentes no ilustran el poema; lo habitan. Son el reflejo de ese minuto implacable que la artista ha logrado llenar con sesenta segundos de creación pura".

WANTING

    To the survivors of the Holocaust

I have dreamed of you so much
in these days
of stew and bread.
I have dreamed of you so much
with the frost and the famine
with the chains lacerating the ankles
with the terror
installed in the hut.
I have dreamed of you so much
FREEDOM.
