GM, Gen Art Lovers!☀️ Surely you've heard of Warhol's Campbell's Soup paintings. They may seem like fun, insignificant artworks, but what makes them special enough to hang in the MoMA? What have they contributed to Art History? Spoiler: there’s much concept behind them.

I just received a printed version of Leonardo journal (published by MIT) in which my article on "Catharsis" and the concept of long-structure has been published. Even "Catharsis" has been selected to be the cover of the issue!! Special mention to Erick Calderon and @tylerxhobbs, whose work I cite on the research.

This is the artwork with which I was finalist of Lumen Prize in 2013. Eleven years from now that seems like a whole life. What an exciting journey it has been! ❤️ We were so young and early then 😊 @lumenprize
