Bogotá, Colombia (1986)
I am an observer and an explorer, always searching to understand the way people use textiles, and the ways in which they relate to them. Over the years, I have travelled to different countries and regions, collecting photographs and videos that depict textiles as elements of culture. I’m interested in the everyday use of textiles and the values that people ascribe to them, how the fabrics have become powerful storytellers of the particular communities, and how specific cultural features of a society are expressed through textiles.
