Description

"Threads of Topography maps memory, place, and material through weaving, crochet, embroidery, and spinning, rooted in the rural landscapes of southern Brazil. Using raw and repurposed fibers dyed with earthen hues, the works evoke shifting horizons, displacements, and renewals, balancing translucency with density. Through slow, ritualized making, each piece becomes a topography of lived experience, inviting viewers to reconsider space, fragility, and belonging."
