<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nIn my life, I have created thousands of images, both independently and collaborating with agencies, publishers, private individuals, independent and self-production companies
The largest amount of my production took place in the field of children’s publishing, in libertarian activism, in the iconography connected with yoga
I love to share projects that contribute to a more beautiful, harmonious, sincere and fair world<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Freedom, Awareness, Knowledge, Spontaneity, Passion, Creation. Inventing images, things, reasoning, situations to look, to listen, to read, to live, to rejoice, to love.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Ideals and practices of brotherhood with the living, guarantee of individual sense and collective insulation. Traveling between the horizons of sincere and meaningful communication within relationships of mutual solidarity. expansion of awareness, of the genuine unfolding of individual and social potential.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
I dedicate myself to the study and practice of libertarian culture, yoga, meditation. It is from these experiences and paths that I draw inspiration and motivation for my creative work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n THANGKA AND TRADITIONAL BUDDHIST ICONOGRAPHY<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
I have dedicated a few years of my life to the study of thangka painting, that is, Buddhist icons of the Himalayan tradition, assimilating rigorous principles and developing a personal style, more suitable for Western sensitivity, but in compliance with traditional prescriptions.

\n\n\nACTIVISM<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
I participate in the spread of the libertarian culture of self-production and self-management, in the criticism of the system and the destruction of the natural environment camouflaged by “technological progress”, and the social environment camouflaged by “economic growth”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I collaborate with publishers, magazines, and groups that deal with radical criticism in the cultural, social and ecological fields. I, therefore, participate in information (or counter-information) on causes and possible remedies for discomfort and current socio-bio-eco-environmental degradation with illustration, graphics, writing, promotion, and conduct of debates, self-produced popular material including Nautilus Edizioni, Fenix \u200b\u200bEdizioni, Radioblackout, Istrixistrix, Senzaguinzaglio, magazines “Polvere” and “Il Folletto”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 2008 I wrote and published the book Sorvegliato Mentale (Mental Supervised), ed. Nautilus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From 2004 to 2009 I conceived and conducted radio broadcasts at the free radio station Radioblackout (Turin): Peste & Corna (situationist cabaret program of cultural defeatism); Stato Terapeutico (Therapeutic State) Criticism of the medicalization of the existing); Qualcuno vol\u00f2 sul nido del cuculo (Someone flew over the cuckoo’s nest. Radical criticism of psychiatry in collaboration with Tristano Aimone); La fattoria degli Animali (Animal Farm, analysis of social cooperatives with Riccardo Borgogno).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Since 1988 I study meditative and yogic disciplines. Since 2013 I share the knowledge acquired about self-management of health by teaching therapeutic Hatha Yoga and a conscious lifestyle in defense of the scientist dehumanization in vogue.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

I, therefore, participate in information (or counter-information) on causes and possible remedies for discomfort and current socio-bio-eco-environmental degradation with illustration, graphics, writing, promotion, and conduct of debates, self-produced popular material including Nautilus Edizioni, Fenix \u200b\u200bEdizioni, Radioblackout, Istrixistrix, Senzaguinzaglio, magazines “Polvere” and “Il Folletto”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In 2008 I wrote and published the book Sorvegliato Mentale (Mental Supervised), ed. Nautilus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n From 2004 to 2009 I conceived and conducted radio broadcasts at the free radio station Radioblackout (Turin): Peste & Corna (situationist cabaret program of cultural defeatism); Stato Terapeutico (Therapeutic State) Criticism of the medicalization of the existing); Qualcuno vol\u00f2 sul nido del cuculo (Someone flew over the cuckoo’s nest. Radical criticism of psychiatry in collaboration with Tristano Aimone); La fattoria degli Animali (Animal Farm, analysis of social cooperatives with Riccardo Borgogno).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n Since 1988 I study meditative and yogic disciplines. Since 2013 I share the knowledge acquired about self-management of health by teaching therapeutic Hatha Yoga and a conscious lifestyle in defense of the scientist dehumanization in vogue.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n Agencies:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Publishers<\/strong>: <\/p>\n\n\n\n ** where the publisher is not mentioned, the Shang Shung Edizioni, Arcidosso, Grosseto is always valid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \n2011 CNN, Jnana Dakini (digital ink).2011 Calendario lepre metallo (cover-ink plus digital color)\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n From 1993-2011 The Mirror, Magazine (Massachusetts \u2013 U.S.A.). <\/p>\n\n\n\n From 1992 Merigar letter magazine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Paola Mini, cre-active, fair-situationist, eco-libertarian, observer sometimes painter, illustrator, graphic designer, writer, communicator, yogini and so on In my life, I have created thousands of images, both independently and collaborating with agencies, publishers, private individuals, independent and self-production companies The largest amount of my production took place in the field of children’s publishing, in libertarian… Read More »About me<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"neve_meta_sidebar":"","neve_meta_container":"","neve_meta_enable_content_width":"","neve_meta_content_width":0,"neve_meta_title_alignment":"","neve_meta_author_avatar":"","neve_post_elements_order":"","neve_meta_disable_header":"","neve_meta_disable_footer":"","neve_meta_disable_title":"on","ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1816","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-info"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.illustra-azione.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1816","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.illustra-azione.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.illustra-azione.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.illustra-azione.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.illustra-azione.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1816"}],"version-history":[{"count":31,"href":"https:\/\/www.illustra-azione.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1816\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2653,"href":"https:\/\/www.illustra-azione.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1816\/revisions\/2653"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.illustra-azione.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1816"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.illustra-azione.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1816"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.illustra-azione.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1816"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n THANGKA AND TRADITIONAL BUDDHIST ICONOGRAPHY<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
