Spaces Between Us . 2004 - 2009

The series explores how the space between people sometimes seems to have an almost solid form, as if the individuals share a connection. Other times, that space feels empty, as if there's nothing to connect them. Collected newspapers photos of athletes, politicians, activists, movie stars and so on have being reproduced and being marked with red embroidery.
The series debuted at the Arco art fair in Madrid (2004) as an outdoor intervention. Laminated black and white photocopies, embroidered with red thread are exhibited on a tree in the centre of the city. The project continued with images printed on canvas and embroidered.
