Featuring Monica Londoňo
Colombian Fiber Artist
C

 


 

 

Monica Londoņo, the artist, skillfully works in the old technique of plain Tafetan. Shapes and forms that emulate the reality of nature. Crossed, interlaced, entorched, tightened, violent and assembled threads, inspired not in upholstery of others, but in the twist and turns of urban tree textures, beings with which she has kept a dialogue and consideration, and whose tree trunks are prisoners of cement and the irritating metal fences.
Obtained a Artistic Textile degree at "Centro de Diseņo Taller Cinco" in Bogotá, where she was taught by the Uruguayan textile artist Kela Cremasky. She has a conviction of who knows how and when it was planted in her soul: absolutely everything in the world is woven.Since then life has become that, in a woven piece, to the point that she casually says, alluding to the various raw materials of her work, all the way from natural fibers to barbed wire, passing by twigs and parts of old looms " whatever give me the chance, I weave"
