About Celica G.

Hi. My name is Celica G. Di Ronco, thanks for reading, maybe you are a random reader, or a reader without a name, or an alien who understands the language. As I’ve no interest in knowing your gender, I will simply call him “a living being”. Don’t take it badly, believe me, without you, I’m “nothing”.

Let me tell you a few things before he leaves, it will not take long. Eduardo Galeano once wrote, “the system, empties our memory or fills us with the memory of garbage and thus teaches us to repeat the story instead of do it”.

Look, I always had the need to create…

At 5 years old, I decided to draw and later to paint.

At 16 years old, I decided to write and later to make tattoos.

At 19 years old, I finished my studies specialiced in building design and technical construction.

At 20 years old, I decided to play bass and later double bass.

At 26 years old, I decided to study at university, first studied math, then physics and later literature. (I didn’t finish my studies but I learned enough to walk firmly through this hostile and treacherous world).

At 29 years old, I published my first book: Humores Vítreos Azules.

At 30 years old, I left Argentina for Europe and settled in Barcelona.

At 31 years old, I published my second book: Fluxiones Viscosas Magentas.

At 33 years old, I decided to take photo, first digital photography and later to chemical photography. (Developing, enlarging and printing).

At 35 years old, I published my third book: Lapsus Volátiles Naranjas.

At 38 years old, I decided to learn permaculture design and later 3D printing.

Today, at 43 years old, I continue with photography, writing, drawing, painting and dreaming. I work in a big ITC company as a senior technician and manage and coordinate the website ArtísticaDiRonco , which works as a portfolio and advertising agency..

I like to play the double bass and think, also learn play a drums, Italian language, French language and at night (when the weather is favorable) I get lost in the vastness of the sky looking with my telescope those elusive dreams that don’t come while I sleep.

I also design homes and research ways to build with environmentally friendly materials because I have a title of “construction technician” that enables me to do these things with full knowledge of the cause. For now it is more than a hobby because I don’t work professionally on this.

This activities. What do they have in common?

Simply, my self-taught way of directing my professional life and participating in this increasingly sick world of “acute overdose of degrees”. I understand, without university degrees, I’m “professional of nothing”, but I have spent all my life studying the trades and themes that move the internal engine of my life constantly, perfecting everything. Today I can die without problems and if the universe gives me one more day in this body, nothing will stop this lifelong learning that has the sole purpose of enjoying life and being a better person.

This is a light overview of what my life was like. I can tell you a lot about many things, but I will not fill my mouth with the same old phrases. I don’t want to empty my memory to start repeating the story, I just want to make myself known in another way, showing what I’m and what I’m doing now, without forgetting what I was or what I did before. I’m a being who chose ART as a tool to change and not to repeat. Believe me, it is difficult, because with ART only changes the decoration of nature and it is very easy to fall into the common places where it only repeats itself.
