SILENCE SERIES

In a world crowded with noise, I would like to make a proposition, an invitation to be quiet, and, at the same time, embrace the idea of fragility and ephemerality. There is beauty and peace to be found there.

​

The newest pieces of the Silence Series are reflections on the feelings and emotions we cultivate along our journey through life. While creating and observing them, I see renderings of my “andares” (a Spanish word that most closely translates to a blend of wandering and journey). Each piece focuses on a particular feeling, together depicting the vastness of the human experience. 

 

I work with a single reduced palette of primary colors in oils, to create unique tones and values that I apply in several thin layers. This process generates a subtle harmony between depth and smoothness. I embroidered each piece with handmade 24k gold thread, representing the “andares”, we all walk, with their wonderful imperfections.
