Armando Mesías, A story of time, transformation and memory
Armando Mesías reinvents found textiles, offering a reflection on the passage of time and our changing identities. He intervenes on these fabrics, leaving his mark on each piece to integrate his own identity while respecting the existing narratives they carry. Using materials such as jute, hemp, muslin, and cotton, he creates pictorial works through the assembly and layering of fabrics. His stitches pay homage to the Japanese tradition of 'sashiko', emphasizing the importance of repairs and visible seams that bear witness to the quality and history of the fabrics, passed down from generation to generation.
