"We are blind, Blind but seeing..."/"Somos ciegos, ciegos que ven".
Sketchbook series. by Alejandra Herrera
"Creo que no nos quedamos ciegos, creo que estamos ciegos, ciegos que ven, ciegos que, viendo, no ven"
José Saramago. Ensayo sobre la Ceguera.
Esta chica ciega, feliz, mirando algo fijamente pero en realidad mirando la nada; esta chica somos todos. Un puñado de gente ciega que podemos ver pero no vemos.
Está embelesada por una realidad inexistente, sólo en su cabeza. Y finalmente, ¿qué vemos?

English version
“I don't think we did go blind, I think we are blind, Blind but seeing, Blind people who can see, but do not see.”
José Saramago. Blindness.
This blind girl, happy, staring at something but really looking at nothing; This girl is all of us. A bunch of blind people that can see but don't see.
She is amazed by a nonexistent reality, only in her head. And finally, what do we see?
Illustration for my sketchbook, made with colors, stylographs and markers.

I think this blindness has to do with mentality and sense of reasoning. That's where I believe you are coming from.
Great piece with a powerful message.
