Guadalupe Rosales

Before I began to post here, I had made a list of artist I was interested in showing but that's not what it turned out to be once I started, for the most part at least. One artist led me to the next and so on. I guess thats what blogging is... This has been an amazing experience, hope you enjoyed these amazing works by amazing artists.

one last time here and here!

Guadalupe Rosales

During a few attempts to collaborate with friend and artist Lee Maida, we discussed the possibility of making objects or "wearable sculptures" using textiles and earth color schemes. The collaboration never happened but my interest in using these colors such as mustard, gold, greys, blues and greens continued so I began to make drawings. In these drawings, I was also interested in overlaying patterns and how lines took form.

a big hello to guest blogger guadalupe rosales. throughout this week guadalupe will explore the various ways that artists employ textiles as foundation for work in other media. as she explains: "in collecting this group together, i looked for traces. i considered the qualities textiles have and therefore the ways that they could influence another medium and also the forms textiles take to presence those representations as well. how does a flowing limp thread translate into a hardened photograph, a gesture in a video or jeans painted on a naked body?" more about guadalupe here and here.
