MEMORIAS BORDADAS:

Ofelia y Antelmo.

GABRIELA MARTINEZ ORTIZ

In this project the artist fused her photographs and the textile world. The objective
of the project was to capture different natural places in Mexico in photographs
that would dictate a path of colors and textures represented with embroidery.

El viejo de la danza

MAYRA ACOSTA RAMÍREZ

“That is why dance has represented a problem for colonization,
as it is a mode of political resistance or rebellion.
The dancers turn the stage into resistance to domination and a way of combating the absence of original cultures in history.”

Cenzontle

SEBASTIÁN MONTES DE OCA H.

Cenzontle was reborn to sing and live in freedom.
Like Cenzontle, women have been reborn and in the process have found their voice,
a voice that echoes in the ears of those who seek to silence them.
Fly and sing out loud!

intended to be an indirect timeline.

These pieces are part of a series that,
from the aesthetics of abstraction,
invite us to become absorbed in the sensitive dimension of the territory.

GABRIELA MARTINEZ ORTIZ

In this project the artist fused her photographs

and the textile world. The objective of the project

was to capture different natural places in Mexico

in photographs that would dictate a path of

colors and textures represented with embroidery.

"My biggest source of inspiration is nature.

I love taking pictures and many of my creations are

influenced by the places I pass through

The way I relate to the garments I produce is as if they

were just another canvas, only in a different format

They are canvases where I tell stories and my

way of seeing life. Designed to be inherited

as they are one size, unisex and reversible.

The clothing part of my project Ofelia and Antelmo

was born because I wanted to honor how the

groups of native peoples all over the world

relate to clothing. A world where the construction of

the garments was reduced to squares and rectangles

because their main function was to protect

and wrap the body against all the adversities of

the outside world, and when worn they provided a

sense of belonging and communicated information.

In this garment, and in the project in general, I

seek to invite to stop and contemplate.

Creating canvases that create visual curiosity,

so much that makes you get closer and find out

what your eyes are seeing. At the same time

I like to think that in my canvases

I leave a record of my history".
