Project: Para espacios Jóvenes creadores, FONCA

Category: Applied Arts, Textile

The fabric that adorns the space
That inhabits the environment.
The comings and goings of life in the creation of each pleat

The texture that caresses the sight
The dance of color and its shadow...

Through an obsessive quest to manipulate textiles, For Space reinterprets the pleating techniques used in high fashion with French savoir-faire and Japanese origami techniques to ornament and appropriate the environment through the purity of textiles. Creating an intimate, playful, and ethereal atmosphere parallels everyday life through the use of texture, light, and color. It is a space that suggests intimacy.

The result of a fusion of high and low technologies is that it seeks to create three-dimensionality through the use of textiles and to discover new tones of white through the dialogue of the fabric’s pleats with light and shadow.

The diaphanous fabric is a mixture of polyester and cotton treated with resin and thermofixed at a high temperature.

The first collection consists of three textile patterns, which can be manipulated according to lighting and spatial needs.

This first series employs fabrics on metallic structures that allow them to fly or structure their fall, giving them an alternate use as spatial dividers.

For Space is a project developed with a grant from the National Fund for Culture and the Arts (FONCA), a support program for the artistic and cultural community run by Mexico’s Ministry of Culture.
