Hello and welcome to your own lax who would have thought. From switzerland and we have lots small coming up. Any tag an artist who uses the date stamp to create an asian picture. The kind of cool vibrant british and im not trying to give. But 1st we have to portugal the southern european country and especially its capitalist been is paying us full color for the painted tights called. You can find them all over in houses and colicky outs even on entire facades they are a symbol of portugal and in the meantime i exported well white and of course copied by the riches from portugal mostly still hand right. These ceramic tiles called as they lay shoes are one of portugals most iconic traditional art forms the designs have changed continuously over the years and valving into the familiar ornamental tiles in blue and white in lisbon they appear at almost every turn. For almost 20 years now. Has overseen the preservation of the capitol ceramic heritage. Was the law of the famous right like the light of lisbon. Comes not only for military was true and its very well thats true. But from the portuguese fiberoptics which are white and primarily the reflections from the tiles on the streets of good for the 3rd gives the city a special aura that light its known for. Dont go to. The tiles give lisbon much of that specific character but aside from their decorative function they help protect the buildings from the heat and salty air gusting in off the atlantic ideal for this southern european city the ornamental tiles have a long history beginning with the moore is largely magreb berbers who occupied most of the Iberian Peninsula starting in the 8th century the muslim caliphates were ousted 8 centuries later but the as alasia has been made and. The idea beers in were part of our lives for 8 or 900 years. Even today we continue to make your insert. Such as these panels you see here is what i feel its an art form a constantly evolving thing. Or something. Was in florence years or more. This factory dating back to 741 produces a very particular kind of tile its the oldest tile manufacturer in portugal and one of the oldest in Europe Francisco to marche is the managing director the other lesions are still made by hand using techniques that have hardly changed in 300 years when they were 1st developed to turn out tiles in large quantities. Here for 755 destroyed the city if these went almost completely to rebuild the city they had stone and tower at the time that i was most chipper that stone and the with due to the volume of buildings being being made at the time they start to develop developing some designs to cover all the better for saints of often its been so nice was that theyre not a turn turning point on day 3 after throw bricks tiles in portugal. Every muslim nation starts with clay gets pounded into a mall a bit of advance planning is needed as it takes the tiles about 2 months to dry then theyre baked for 18 hours at 1100. 00 degrees celsius. So after the 1st fiery you have now the 1st quality quantrill check this is a very important phrase because at the time its handmade it is always possible with this natural clay that we use to leave air bubbles on the inside and its just the majority of the times its only possible to detect them using a sound test because. Its metallic sound that tells that this is it. If we have a bad tile. The sound is completely different. Painting the tiles also requires a certain level of skill to keep the water based acrylics from bleeding into each other stencils. Argues that with a special under glaze. Firing the tiles again often changes the colors appreciatively. One of the biggest markets for the tile outside the country is the u. S. And of course the many tourists but to satisfy the market for souvenirs leaves often pry the little Artworks Office sides. Few decades ago there was a huge worry about left of those who were sold on the n. T. Now when the reserves are more aware of this problem with us or have been sensitized to it by information campaigns. And the portuguese are getting more and more respect for their own heritage where gold with their mom you. Not only does lisbon shine with a light of its own portugals capital literally sparkles with its many colorful as only issues. And weve brought back something very special for you from portugal ahead makes tire without what the logo on it were giving it away to just go to our Facebook Page and post a photo into the commentaries of the place of honor the tile gets in your house so good luck. Next from hand painted tights to hand stand up works back when. I was studying at the arts academy in rome he always find his work with the date one day he came up with the idea of making time itself part of his out how he does it take a look. Federico. Does it use brushes he uses stamps and pads. He creates his images with an ordinary office date or. Ringback he presses it onto his canvas thousands of times until the overall. Textures. I decided to use. Because that was. The simplest too i could find to capture time. The excello through a funny kind gallery in rome our perception of time is the artists dominant theme it takes him up to 2 months to complete a picture to date or always records the correct date of its. Close examination of the work reveals when which parts of it who created it. I worked on this picture for instance for about 2 weeks from september 16th of october 1st so. You can find these dates on. Here. As october 1st. And whats the painting called its called 16 to october 1st. Has been using daters to produce his artworks for about 20 years now he shows them in exhibitions all over europe. He was born and raised in rome where he studied at the academy of fine arts the eternal city provides no end of subjects Street Scenes classical architecture and nature within the city of cortes the subjects for his works on his mobile. I mean this is one of the classic observation points. Photos. Since im going to tourist in my own home. I think the clouds over the city especially. I meant to direct their gaze and reveal new perspectives as well. Then alters the photos on his computer until the contrast and color temperature are just right to be turned into a stamped image. Hed like his arts to prompt the viewers to think about their concept of time as here at the my time is your time exhibition in rome. Id like to have more time i think time is the most Precious Resource youve got. It seems everyones all be short on time. Right now we have lots of time during the pandemic we have more time than we need we used to have very little time now we have to get used to having more time to fill. In his hometown is no conventional solo show of his works here hes constantly at work on new pictures the viewers can share their time with him. In 100 years maybe. Somebody will read the. And be able to imagine a person that i tried to capture. For. Federico. Turns a very particular dates into timeless works of art. This small blossom is very valuable no one does saffron is nicknamed rhett gold and single gram can cost more than 30. 00 euros it strong made me enough ghana stan and iran and the kashmir region for example here in europe there are only very few areas on the cultivation one of them and you would probably never guess the through its ups. The most precious spice in the world is extracted from these flowers some from a farmer of a tough and has a lot to do in the autumn which is the harvest time here in the swiss count on a valet he picks each crocus blossom individually. When we pick the flower we make sure to press it down a little bit and then bend it. He has to collect 130000 flowers for a kilo of sa from the spices associated with warmer regions of the climate in the Mountain Village of moore and is very special and is the only place in Central Europe where crocus says drive at a High Altitude and. Snow on. Water. The flowers need hot summers but on the other hand they also need cold snowy winters if we compare our climate to the countries of origin where saffron grows whether in kashmir pakistan or iran to have similar conditions a harsh old winters as well as hot summers. In the summer. The sandy clay ish soil of the swiss alps is perfect for saffron where the spice has been cultivated since the 15th century the 62 year old farmer has dedicated his entire life to it his parents on the south front fields and ogrady is a small boy he had to help with the picking. Get me off guard and its important to me to preserve this engine tradition of cultivating separate from which weve practiced for centuries never to inspire younger people to get interested in it and thats a big guys then. Theres an educational hiking trail in one that explains the secrets of harvesting the selfproclaimed son from the engine is a tourist magnet and takes pride in its history they meet you. Puffiness founded a small museum in the past saffron was used as a dye for textiles and as a medicine saffron was probably brought to switzerland by spanish smugglers who wanted to sell the precious plant at a high price saffron can be used to refine many things like only a lick or act passed the law is all phone calls. When you buy saffron make sure that its a thread and not a powder. And secondly make sure that the color is right it beautiful shade of red like the color white. Over time you develop a good nose the smell of saffron its an aroma. The aroma is created while the sun from threads are drying each flower has only 3 threads after the harvest they are placed in a dark room for 2 days from dont present even these if i had them seeds through these threads use for 50 their weight on drying. Which means that all this is left all the work invested in picking up threads. And a fair. These are both taught by the snow from oak so perhaps it no longer comes as a surprise or so from a source i dont see. Just approximately 45. 00 kilos browns of sap from treads are harvested per year in the Mountain Village of mine but the effort is worth it the taste of swiss saffron is unique one thats all for on the cell phone from now on is unique because its cultivated according to a special method for the thighs and cry from the separate olds are planted in the same interview with a view to write a song in. The cell phone call than continue. Writing cold swiss saffron is a mix of diverse influences some gourmet saying this sound from from the highest cultivation area in europe is the best saffron in the world.

These are the last airplanes to land at berlins taiko airport and for plane spotters like felix must take its the last chance to take farewell photos this point from the highway is one of his favorite locations from which he practices his hobby. Was on my special think about this but is that you have the airport in the background if you turn to the left you have some planes approaching from the night saying go and sometimes the light is just perfect theyre almost right above you what your. Plane spotting specialize in photographing different types of airplanes. They use an app that tells them when where and which plane is landing. Felix mate has captured many special moments here. All the government planes from my camera one of my favorite moments was the last air berlin flight in a minute.

Like flying from here too bad because its. Actually good to have an airport on each side of the city. Carriage and my daughters very the airport is part of our childhood memories we always devoted our time between south america and Berlin Germany never to leave. You here and evelyn child i have worked at the airport for more than 25 years theyve written a book about their experiences for them teagle is the greatest airport in the world. Thats you see that was the great thing about this place you came checked in and then you were already seated on the plane to. The airport is small and compact it is only empty right now because of the corona pandemic before it was overflowing with passengers there are a lot of anecdotes. But at most airports arrivals and departures are separated into 2 different floors or terminals and here theyre right next to each other and that became emotionally evidence when you spent a lot of time here. Putting. Too many to go fans gather for the last time to say goodbye on the visitors terrace. Plane spotter felix matteo also takes a few more photos people are getting set for the realisation that its really the end where you always thought about it but unfortunately its becoming a reality the only airport it is a beloved place full of memories for learners and travellers from all over the world with a heavy heart many will say bye bye and thank you take a.
