Kathy Munguia, estudiante del diplomado de inglés en el Centro de Idiomas se encuentra en El Salvador esta semana y nos ha compartido un poco sobre el propósito de su viaje: ''El evento en el que estoy se llama "Simposio Itinerante Internacional de Escultura, Metapán 2018", estamos trabajando en Metapán, Santa Ana, El Salvador. Somos 20 escultores, hay participantes de Italia, El Salvador, Honduras, Hungría, Chile, Ecuador, Costa Rica, de los cuales 3 somos mujeres una de El Salvador, una de Italia y yo de Honduras. El dibujo del niño es mi boceto para la escultura en esa roca. Esta obra es un recordatorio de la protección que como sociedad debemos o deberíamos darle a la niñez al ser la etapa más frágil, pura y sensible del ser humano, por ello es la figura de un bebé envuelto y con los ojos cerrados en posición como si alguien lo estuviese cargando, como artista entiendo mi responsabilidad y compromiso al hablar desde la roca, por los niños que sufren las guerras, el abandono y la hipocresía social.'' ¡Éxitos, Kathy!

The child's drawing is my sketch for the sculpture on that rock. This work is a reminder of the protection that we as a society should give to children as it is the most fragile, pure and sensitive stage of the human being, for that reason it is the figure of a baby wrapped and with eyes closed in position as if Someone was carrying it, as an artist I understand my responsibility and commitment to speak from the rock, for children who suffer war, abandonment and social hypocrisy.''
