Description

Floating Words is a collection of works, part of an ongoing process to explore asemic writing. Words exist as a graphic intention. There is no clarity. Doesn’t my activate upon reading them? Do they just exist to my eyes?

All the stamped designs on the garments were hand cut and pressed by me using leftover material from Diantres, a screen printing and design studio from Bogota, Colombia. I’m grateful for your generosity and love.

The text “They Dream” was written by Nicolás Castro.

All the drawings are part of an ongoing practice to communicate beyond meaning and sense.
All of the garments are single pieces and the ones marked with a ↺ were found in second-hand shops.

Digesting Care

Website , Zine

2022

Description

The Digesting Care publication was developed for the EU Commission project Taking Care by Museum Volkenkunde in the Netherlands. It is a static website written by a Python script that takes the content written in markdown and makes it HTML using Pandoc. The website interface filters the content based on a question generated by a small set of parameters. These are defined by us digesting the concepts and unsolved topics of the conference. The website was developed by experimenting with the idea of resilient web design and web-to-print techniques. We printed an edition of 120 copies of 50 different publications.
