MOIRAS Edición Colombia

The Moiras are a tribute to the thread:
The thread, testimony of time and existence
The thread, the bond that is woven between people
The thread, root matter and synthesis of a territory

The Moiras project was born in 2022 in Mallorca, with the Series 1. Each of them is made with local threads, for Moiras edition Colombia Sylvia worked with silk block from Cauca and fiber Huila banana, additional to merino wool from transhumant herds already used in the Series 1.

These traveling cultural artifacts; as described by the journalist Rocio Arias Hofman, are manufactured anywhere in the world using the weaver’s gesture, the local fiber and the interaction with the environment.

The Moiras invite us to touch them, to cross them, to inhabit them; and it is through of that interaction as they complete. So, they breathe, they swell, they curl, tangle, fray, degrade; and as they age, they become more beautiful and even more alive.
