Notes
Using textiles as structures to build layers, Regina Dejiménez dives into the micro and macro of the thousands of invisible, symbolic and touchable layers that make up the visible world. With such a simple and everyday elements as the thread, the artist creates a flexible and almost invisible plot, echoing the sensitive and subtle weft of vibrations.
“The inside of our bodies create our organs, our skin retains these organs. Houses and places we inhabit make up another layer of human society that falls within a greater ecological and planetary system.” All these parts have connections and patterns in common that the artist captures through representations of processes and organic forms in accordance with the geometry and layers of the universe. This work resembles a complex map of connections encapsulating an instant of the eternal process of life.
