Dissociative~

A series of three linoprints about the acceptation of the battle in our head: more than resignation, it’s an invitation to meditate to understand our connection with everybody/ everything in the universe.

Embroidery has been a subject I find exciting and beautiful, and since a few years ago, I've been playing with the possibilities of illustration and embroidery. In more or less successful outcomes, this post is dedicated to my favorite try-outs which I separate in three different categories. Coeur, watercolours, inks & thread on paper by Salas, E. (2020) Embroidery illustrations by Salas, E. These illustrations are a few examples of how by incorporating a few strings and patterns of embroidery as part the illustration, can pop out the main idea or feeling. Even if it's just to add a bit of colour, or mere experimentation in my sketchbooks, I enjoy the process and the results.
