ARTIST SUPPORT PLEDGE

An initiative created by Matthew Burrows that I am taking part in. Is a simple and efficient way to support artist in our communities. I am posting in Instagram my artwork for sale for no more than £200 each. If manage to sale £1000 worth of my art work I will buy one from another artist. I don't need to say that is a great opportunity to buy Art from your favourite Artist and support our creative community. 
"Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many artists have found themselves without work, teaching, technical support and gallery work. Exhibitions and sales have disappeared. In an attempt to help alleviate some of this stress I have instigated the ARTIST SUPPORT PLEDGE #artistsupportpledge" Matthew Borrows

In my 'Prints and Books' page you can see the Etchings and Lithography that are for sale

Plant Pots @ Borrowed Light Floral Studios

Plants help us to balance our environment at home and work. I have plants in every room of my house, it may sound like a lot but I love them. My mother always had plants around our house and looked after them regularly; on Sundays we all had to help in the garden, I was not too happy about it because I was young and got bored after half an hour of doing it, but it helped me to understand how to look after and take care of plants.

I talk to my plants and praise them when they are doing well, even though my son will tells me not to. But this something that it comes naturally and I can't really avoid it.
My favourite plants are succulents and cacti because the are resilient and adaptable. I used to go to Kew Gardens when my son was little and spent a good amount of time in the Cacti enclosure. It reminded me of the warmth of my country and makes me feel at home. Another inspirational garden is Columbia Road Flower Market, this is where I bought my First succulent when I move to London in 2003 .

Now I found other wonderful place to enjoy plants like Borrowed Light Floral Studio in Walthamstow. I go there to buy plants and to enjoy the soft and lifely environment, the fresh smell of plants makes me feel happy and relaxed. The owners are very knowledgeable and kind.

​I am now featuring my ceramic pots in their lovely shop. See you there!

I have been thinking to change my shop name for sometime now. Moving forward from something that you created like a branding name is quite an exercise, mainly because you have been identify with that name for a few years. 

I open Sylva Ceramics shop to sale my tableware in 2016, my work has evolved and I feel more colorful and mature than before, that and the fact that there are a good amount of Silva and Sylva practicing pottery with an Etsy shops have make decided to make that change.

My shop with increasing beautiful and meaningful tableware  is called '​YanireSD'. Click below and have a pick of what I am doing, you may find a great present for this Spring wedding that you have been invited or a special present for your lovely mum? Maybe a special present for yourself, why not!!!

Artist Around the Corner

 A Documentary and a Book about the first E17 Art Trail.

The idea of this project came around October 2018, after going to the first meeting of the E17 Art Trail, were seeds of the artists projects ideas are planted. Laura Martinez da Silva my partner for this project, is a photographer and filmmaker and I am an artist with extensive experience in administration and projects organization. I've been living in Walthamstow for 11 years and I have been active part of its artistic and creative community so producing this documentary was not totally extrange for me.

We united on this project idea to high-light the way the local community has developed, as well as to show how the  arts and creativity have been a powerful catalyst for the growth and regeneration in the area. We believe the E17 Art Trail and the artists who have taken part in it over the years,  have contributed enormously to what Walthamstow has become today and we wanted to document and share the story of this journey. As passionate and creative people, we jumped at the opportunity to create a video documentary and a book about the borough’s journey, even before fully securing the usual initial funding. Our commitment, skill and wealth of experience have carried us this far and for the project to reach completion, we  sent a ‘call out’ to all the artists who took part in the first ever E17 Art Trail and 10 came back to us.

Our plans for the future and love of working with artists and makers, inspired us to create E17 Room, a project which aims to provide an ‘open door’ space for the community. “Artists around the corner: E17 Art Trail 2005 Wonders” is a first such project, with many more to come.

Walthamstow Borough of Culture!

1/8/2019

1 Comment

 

This was a creative workshop designed to celebrate the opening of Walthamstow as the 2019 Borough of Culture in January 2019.

The aim of the workshop was to create a workshop that could be delivered in 15 minutes, that will have a high end product, will look beautiful, will be in tune with Walthamstow and honour the London Borough of Culture. 
For the workshop I designed 3 different lanterns, one for each day of the event inspired by the iconics: Walthamstow Stadium, The Wedlands and William Morris. All the paper lanterns where printed using Shetland and Recycled 160g paper.

With the help of Kay and Sue we delivered 900 Paper Lanterns on 3 days. It was great to experience how families came to do the workshop with us and left proudly with their paper lanterns leading their way.

Here are some of the many feedbacks that we collect from the experience:

The lanterns were easy to make and very beautiful. My kid really enjoyed going around the park with his lantern. Daniela

What a wonderful idea we love the William Morris pattern, thank you. Helen

The lovely organizer, clear instructions and a lovely workshop for kids. Jane

This was a very therapeutic activity the kids enjoyed it very much. Lorena

So lovely, what a magical workshop. We enjoyed the simplicity plus achievement. Katherine.

Ceramic for Beginners and Improvers

5/3/2018

We started this course in January and finished in May 2018. What I found more interesting when I teach is helping my students to discover what they are capable of. I start with simple exercises that sometimes challenged students patience because they think "that is very easy" and then is not as easy as they thought. 

I have a small group and I know everyone by their name and what they do, I think part of teaching is also learning the person you are teaching too. Is extremely exciting when they see what are they capable of and the proud on their faces when I hold their finished pieces in their hands. I measure the success of my class by the happiness of my students and their own progress. Working with clay like any other creative activity requires practice and perseverance but the most important thing is that the student enjoy doing it. 

They get to experience clay a very plastic and surprising material used for centuries to create utilitarian and artistic work. They learn their own limits and challenge them, they learned how to become more patient and follow a process. Students have the opportunity of socializing and meet new people that share similar interests. They learn new skills and work with their hands which are proven to release stress and work like a yoga for the brain. Clay challenge your sense of strength and refine your hand motor skills. 

The lessons are host in Blackhorse Workshop which is a very inspiring place full of creative people who happens to be very cool people ;). There is also the fabulous Wood Street Coffee if you get hungry or want to try a seriously good coffee. 
If you join my class! I will guide you if you are completely new and proposed work that will help you to progress in your learning process. If you have done ceramics before and have a clear idea of what you want to do then we can discuss it and I will assist you with your project. I do the firing and glazing in my studio and if you are a practitioner and need firing service I can do it too, £4 a pound of weight or £40 full kiln. Feel free to contact me if you need more information.  

The next class will start in October, join my newsletter and have a great summer!

Exhibition at Winns Gallery

WINNS GALLERY
Lloyd Park London E17 5JW

4th - 13 May 2018
Gallery opening times:
Weekdays 11am - 5pm
Weekends 10am-6pm


‘4 Women in Aquelarre’  is an exhibition of prints, sculptures, mixed media works and ceramics by four artists based in London E17: Anna Alcock, Linda Green, Kirsten Schmidt and Yaniré Sylva Delgado.

Its inspiration is the idea of the Witches’ Sabbath – famously and disturbingly imagined by Goya in Los Caprichos, and long associated with rebellion and transgression and the reality of persecution.

I am presenting to you... "BURIAL PROJECTS"


​In Burial Project or Proyecto Enterramientos, Yaniré Sylva Delgado has made books, prints and ceramics to express her identity, culture and values as an Ecuadorian woman and artist.  She has explored issues of guilt and morality and has looked at burial ceremonies and the ways in which we seek peace through closure.

Yaniré has made five books. The first presents pictures from burials uncovered by archaeological excavations; the second explores the burial of guilt in Roman Catholicism; the third offers redemption; the fourth opens the project to the public by asking the question: how do you want to be buried? The fifth book incorporates images from the famous Guayaquil Cemetery in Ecuador.

“Closure is fundamental in our lives because it allow us to move on. Burial Project has allowed me to grow from the place of pain and frustration so the last piece of work I propose for this exhibition will involve the community, the place where I am now and where I belong. In workshops I will ask the public to create a Venus Valdivia who will represent our growth and hopes in life”.
