WAXED-THREAD EMBROIDERIES ON PLASTIC MESH.

A series of embroideries made with waxed thread on plastic mosquito mesh. These works revolve around the search for geometric patterns capable of generating multiple compositions from a single matrix. Through the repetitive act of embroidery, I enter a state of introspection and stillness that allows thought and suspension of thought to coexist simultaneously. In this sense, the works become material traces of those repetitive gestures, transcending the ephemeral in order to approach what might be understood as a form of permanence.
