JOEL BARDALES F: "I was born in Pucallpa, on October 30, 1978. I am the only child of my parents, who are separated. I live with my mother and grandparents, in a poor district near the school. I have always been very curious about the traditions and customs of my ancestors. When I was little I accompanied my grandmother to the church. I understand now that spirituality is a very important element for the good formation of a person. I also learned very much about the myths, legends and stories of Amazonian people.
"To tell the truth, art didn't interest me so much. What I really wanted was to study medicine. But when I was eleven years a cousin took me to the UskoAyar school, and I became enthusiastic about drawing and painting. Don Pablo became like a father to me, because my parents separated when I was one year old, and my father has an another family. When I was still small my paternal aunt took me for a visit to another town, but she did not return me and my mother had to work hard in the marketplace to get money to go to fetch me back.
"My work has been exhibited a few times and when I participated in an art competition in my school I got the first prize. I like very much the music from my region, I know some songs, and I also know some traditional dances."
