Hexagons
Humanity is at a crucial point where it cannot forget its capacity to inspire. Creativity and sustainability are key. Let’s build a hexagonal awareness. Let’s pollinate culture.
La humanidad no puede olvidar su capacidad para inspirar. Creatividad y sostenibilidad son la clave. Construyamos una consciencia hexagonal. Polinicemos cultura.

In 2017, artist Gema Álava began to place 24 carat gold hexagons in floors around the globe to highlight locations and individuals filled with talent and inspiration. Each hexagon tells a story of growth, hope or resilience.

Without bees who pollinate, humanity would perish. Without creative minds and culture, we would perish too. Beehives are hexagonal because hexagons are the most efficient geometric shapes. Gold was created in the collision of Supernova: a forze as powerful as the strengh of our inner potential.
Sin abejas que polinicen, la humanidad perecería. Sin mentes creativas, sin cultura, dejaríamos de evolucionar. Las colmenas son hexagonales porque el Hexágono es la forma geométrica más eficiente. El oro de la tierra se creó en supernovas: con una fuerza tan extraordinaria como la de nuestro propio potencial.

Just like Gertrude Stein, Gema Álava in her own way is bringing together the artists of this century, not just in one city but on a global level. She is creating her own network of creative souls. One that I fervently hope will someday rival in importance the literary and artistic salons of her Parisian predecessors.

Como hizo Gertrude Stein, Gema Álava está reuniendo a su modo a los artistas de este siglo, pero no en una ciudad sino a nivel mundial. Está creando una red de almas creativas que espero fervientemente sea rival en importancia a los salones artísticos y literarios de sus predecesores parisinos.
