Imágenes de Blanca

86” x 24”

Collage, pencil drawing, painted papers and digital images with natural skyline.


While at Blanca at the Residency AADK, I engaged in the city's traditions of community learning, which helped me understand its history and cultural heritage. I was able to gather information and objects from the town and integrate them into my "Imágenes de Blanca”. Through Blanca's found textures and patterns, I began to use the images print on fabrics and paper strips. Combination of painting, printmaking, sculpture and collage, bringing together a variety of images and materials to create and define a new context. I felt connected to Blanca's energy upon completing the Installation and the fabric as if it were an ancient woven fabric.
