Luz Echeverri
Art and Education for Life
I am Luz Ángela Echeverri, I was born in the city of Santiago de Cali-Colombia,50 years ago. I have been working -for more than 29 years in different places-. since audit assistant to university professor, as a continuous search for a stable employment. During all this time, almost 10 of these years, I worked in different cities in Canada like: Kamloops, Victoria, Vancouver and Ottawa, as a cashier, key holder, registration officer,and sales clerk.
I returned to Colombia back in 2015, and by 2018, at only 45 years old, there was not more job opportunities for me. Tired of all this situation, and not being able to find fair job alternatives that allow me to advance economically, I decided to prepare myself, to start my essential life project in order to give to myself, that real job opportunity, in which, I can demonstrate some of my professional and intellectual capabilities.
It has been 6 years without a job, but of a virtual and self-taught process , during which I took 8 courses at Sena Virtual , on accounting and administrative topics. Now, I am an expert at web design,the job market demands it, if you want to have your own business. Then, I created this space, to consolidated my artistic portfolio and I designed it, with the purpose of bringing together different knowledge acquired in time, photography, art history, literature, art and philosophy, which are my favorite topics. All of this with the objective, to promote and encourage the concept of General Culture, because apart from living in the world of commercial transactions, we are entering at the era of cultural transactions. Educating as a social mission, and to applying the concept of the spiritual mission of education, among human beings, by the philosopher Edgar Morin.
