Portrait of Rosana Escobar

Artist in the fund · Colombia

Rosana Escobar

Textile sculpture made with ancestral techniques from the Pacific coast. Weaving as a political and emotional language.

Practice

Rosana Escobar works with rope, fique and plantain fiber to build sculptures that hold a community's knowledge and a contemporary form at once.

“What she braids is also a lineage: inherited technique and contemporary practice in a single piece.”
