About

The decentralized design seeks to understand a less anthropocentric perspective to focus on beings that coexist with us and even provide services to humans. En el olvido (Oblivion) is a call and declaration to take a pause and closely observe those micro-worlds that we often overlook to recognize their importance.

Understanding that weaving is a form of communication and a tactile-sensitive material, a woven tapestry is created to showcase the Paramo ecosystem (regions that serve as water retention and hydraulic regulation areas throughout the year), where the Astilus Aulicus beetle, an endemic species of the Paramo, resides. The textile piece narrates the importance of the beetle within the ecosystem as carriers of life.
