Niebla
(2022)
Bodies of water have always attracted me, their fluidity, their undeniable way of adapting and being in constant motion. There is something about water that I find inspiring, and it keeps coming back to me in different forms and ideas when I am thinking about my work.
This piece is inspired when the winter fog meets the lake and gives the feeling that the horizon is lost or erased. I imagine myself in the middle of the frozen lake and for a moment I think of the infinite, in something that has no limits, as if life was offering me the chance to paint my own horizon. There is something about this moment that makes me feel calm and peaceful, as if I am where I am supposed to be. Here and now.
This piece is naturally dyed and the embroideries and textures are meditation and gestures that translate my emotions and thoughts during the winter and how my body is reacting to the landscape I'm inhabiting.
