Here’s something light for the holidays, some sweet art from London based Mexican artist Rita Ro who’s inspired by a blend of cooking (the original human science of material transformation), music (conjuring something out of nothing, that again disappears into silence after its performance has concluded), a bit of science (the old twin of magick) and some spirituality.
Her site says:
My name is Rita.
I’m a cross – disciplinary artist born and raised in Mexico city and currently based in London.
After working as a pastry chef in several countries one day i felt that i wanted to learn in other areas than just the culinary and decided to explore other art forms of self expression.
Musically, i have written, composed and produced two albums:
My debut called “Renaissance” released in 2011.
My second called “Milk” released in 2014.
Currently i’m in the process of writing my third.
My culinary activities have never stopped completely and a brand new project involving cooking, music, a bit of science and some spirituality has started.
Its called SUN FOR SUNDAY

I also have a project called TRECE LUNAS where i read from many literary delights from a variety of sources / authors / artists, all infused with my music/sounds and my own interpretation.

My art (music, paintings, photographs, videos, animations, etc.) have all a very hands on approach and totally DIY. They often display a combination of the things i am interested about combined with the emotional state i found myself in that particular moment.
Apart from a degree in gastronomy i did many years ago, I actually have no formal training in music, art or in anything else i make. I’ve learnt all i know myself.
My heart and my work are my offerings to the world and i hope they continue to take me to discover new worlds and new experiences.
Thank you for stopping by…
