Hi Helen, this is a surprise for me.
First of all. This is a very particular project that I initiated on my own,
with the help of my family so, in response to your question, it does not has
to be with the venezuelan association you referred.
The Project is still being built and its purpose is the search of
alternative ways for education. If you are interested in it please do not
hesitate to ask me for more information.
César

Well Helen, Although we have built about 400 m2 of area there are not too
much details that could be well appreciated by photo. Most of the work has
been directed to foundation, walls and the arch roofs so that there are not
yet too much details to be seen. 80% of the construction has been built with
earth and sand taken from the place of work. We are now stopped as we could
not continue financing the cost of this interesting project. In order to
help continue the work, besides preparing claybodies for potters I am in the
search for other alternatives that could support this social project that
could serve as a model for other similar ones.
Basically my intention is to set out this place for a school of arts and
other sciences. Being whitness of the hard reality our society in general
live to the present I consider that it is urgent to dedicate most of our
energies to work on sustantial ways that permit us set deep, real and
harmonius relations between all the beings that intend to share their lives
in our wonderfull blue planet. Until we do not experience the perfume that
comes from a holly relation with others, being a person or a plant, a rock
or an animal, we will still continue loose in fruitless search.
Love to you
César
