Artwork Description

"Casa" consists of a handwoven mobile crafted on a loom using white cotton. The piece combines wooden rods with weaving, creating a unique structure that organically adapts to the rods. On the front, the work features a square structure from which a woven paper strip emerges like a tongue. At the centre of this strip, vibrant pink threads dyed with cochineal—a dye derived from an insect native to Mexico—add a striking contrast. The ends of the weaving are made with hand-spun rabbit hair, evoking ancient Mesoameri-can huipiles. The back of this sculpture transforms into a tail that incorporates pearls woven with white horsehair thread, culminating in an end adorned with rooster feathers. Casa is an exploration of origin through the history of materials, a reflection on the past manifested in this floating and dynamic space. Theses prices exclude VAT.
