Moiras, Edición Colombia
a tribute to the thread:
testimony of time and existence
bond that is woven between us
root matter and synthesis of a territory
These traveling cultural artifacts; as described by the journalist Rocio Arias Hofman, are manufactured anywhere in the world using the weaver’s gesture, the local fiber and the interaction with the environment.
Moiras edition Colombia is made with silk block from Cauca and fiber Huila banana, additional to merino wool from transhumant herds already used in the Series 1.
The Moiras invite us to touch them, to cross them, to inhabit them; and it is through of that interaction as they complete. So, they breathe, they swell, they curl, tangle, fray, degrade; and as they age, they become more beautiful and even more alive.
