In Water.

The artwork is composed of crumpled fabrics in a color range from beige to brown, with a predominance of cream in the center and pinkish-brown towards the edges. The piece is organized as an elongated, vertical structure. Thick, undulating lines, made of white or cream-colored fibers that appear taut or twisted, define areas within the composition. These lines create an organic frame surrounding the whole, with soft, repetitive curves. The interior is composed of several layers of thin, crumpled fabrics, overlapping one another. The creases create an irregular pattern with varying depths, producing shadows and reliefs that add volume. Towards the left edge, there is a greater concentration of folds in brown and ochre tones, while lighter tones predominate in the center. The piece is constructed as a protective structure that hints at its vulnerability. The piece blurs the boundaries between interior and exterior through layers of textiles that open and fold back, revealing an intimate space at its core. The soft tones—creams, beiges, and browns—evoke skin, bone, and earth; materials that shelter, that inhabit, and that recall the body’s memory. In the visual journey, undulating lines are recognized, functioning as seams of containment, organically delimiting the protected territory. Nothing here is rigid: fragility is visible, the form remains in constant transformation, as if breathing from within. The work prompts reflection on protection and dispossession, on what needs to be safeguarded and what, when exposed, reveals the depth of our human experience. It invites us to think of refuge not only as a physical place, but as a gesture: an embrace, a layer, a membrane that sustains.
