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. The wall, as a border between two

geographies, an internal one of an emotional

nature and the other external, whose nature

remains a mystery because it is related to the

multivocal and unpredictable existence of the

others.


The use of textiles alludes to one's own skin, as

it is a material that by itself refers to the

fibers that form our body, this being our first

territory. A territory that, seen from Latin

America, arises from a slavery, patriarchal and

which is represented as struggle, resistance,

violated heritage, reconstruction and resilience;

concepts analogous to textile processes, such as

sewing, patches, makeshift repairs.
