Saturday, May 10th, 2025, was a truly great day for art and culture in M\u00e1laga \u2014 and that\u2019s exactly where the Live Art adventure begins! In the meantime, get ready to become a child again!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

THE NUIT BLANCHE MALAGA 2025<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

What is the famous White Night (Nuit Blanche)?<\/strong>\nIt\u2019s an event that brings together many art and cultural promoters to support numerous artists, poets, singers, and public activities \u2014 from street art to concerts \u2014 running throughout the day and culminating in an explosion of creativity at night. You know the expression \u201cwhite night\u201d? That\u2019s where the idea comes from to recall a vibrant city full of energy for celebrating a full artistic night!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

P.S. A fun historical fact: the first \u201cWhite Night\u201d was proposed in Paris<\/strong> in 2002, with the idea of opening museums, cultural centres, and public spaces outside regular<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each White Night focuses on a theme which leads its events, in this case, the artist Rafael P\u00e9rez Estrada<\/strong>. He was a writer and poet from M\u00e1laga known for his imaginative and original style, blending poetry and visual elements such as drawing. Throughout his career, he published numerous books and became a key figure in contemporary Spanish literature, especially in experimental poetry.<\/p>\n\n\n

We met in the afternoon to prepare the space and materials for the Graffiti and Urban Art<\/strong> performance. Little by little, each of us began working on our artwork... So that I ended up talking with so many different people from all over the world<\/strong> (Hong Kong, Brisbane, and many more!). And maybe that\u2019s the most beautiful and inspiring part of creating Live Art!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was fully immersed in my creative process when, among all these people, some children came closer. And thinking about it, in their shoes, I would have been amazed to start painting too! I mean, if you're curious, you like it, and you want to play... the first thing a child would do is get their hands dirty! So, I remembered that I had with me an artist's book<\/strong> that was perfect for the occasion, and I thought it would be fun to share it<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The interesting thing is that Rafael P\u00e9rez Estrada\u2019s work comes from playing, and that\u2019s why it\u2019s so creative<\/strong> and fantastic<\/strong>. Perhaps this freshness of the creative process somehow inspired me to get involved and sit down with the children to paint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Live Art Result - La Nuit Blanche Malaga 2025<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In the foreground, a feather transforms into his portrait \u2014 in this way I represent the artist not only in his physical appearance but, above all, in his deepest essence<\/strong>. In the background, I stylised a representation of his artworks, including references to his female portraits, star elements (often six-pointed), angels, and one of his most iconic creations: a dove-hand.\nInterestingly, many of Estrada's female portraits are often connected by recurring features, such as the side profile and fashionable hats.\nAnd while Rafael P\u00e9rez Estrada isn\u2019t particularly defined by a strong painting technique, what truly stands out is the creativity and imagination of his visual and poetic work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In primo piano troviamo una piuma che si trasforma nel suo ritratto, un modo di rappresentare l’artista non solo nel suo aspetto fisico ma anche e soprattutto nella sua essenza<\/strong> pi\u00f9 profonda. Per lo sfondo, ho scelto invece una rappresentazione stilizzata delle sue opere d’arte, con una citazione dei ritratti femminili, dell’elemento delle stelle, spesso a sei punte, degli angeli e di una delle sue creazioni pi\u00f9 celebri: una colomba-mano. \u00c8 curioso che in Rafael P\u00e9rez Estrada troviamo moltissimi ritratti femminili, uniti da alcuni elementi che si ripetono, come per esempio il profilo laterale e cappelli di moda. E, se la tecnica pittorica no distingue specialmente Rafael P\u00e9rez Estrada, sicuramente \u00e8 notevole la creativit\u00e0 e la fantasia delle sue opere, visive e poetiche.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The artwork is available upon request, 160\u00d7160 cm (quadriptych), as a decoration for your cultural events<\/strong> or as part of your art collection<\/strong>. Book it through this form:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
