The works from the series 'Aleaciones con memoria de forma' explore the memory of artisanal tradition and the abandonment of rural spaces as an after-effect of the processes of modernization. These works continue the investigation the artist initiated in 2013, through sculptures produced in metal (copper and bronze), intertwining the rawness of the metal with the warmth of Andean design patterns. The conjunction of both elements insinuates a permanent tension between the inheritance of vernacular culture and the new demands of industrialization. Through these works, the artist points to the processes of violence contained in an accelerated transnational economic model in which the protection of the environment, sovereignty, and the respect for different community lifestyles is constantly brought into confrontation.

'Gasa - entrelazado I', 2020 refers to the artefacts of the Chancay culture, a pre-Columbian civilization who lived on the central coast region of Peru. This region corresponds with the section of coast in the Lima Department. The Chancay are particularly noted for the vast quantity and superb quality of their textiles, especially for the range of techniques and imaginative decorative patterns.
