"The piece was made using scraps of textiles that I had been sourcing and keeping throughout the years. These textiles reminded me of the past and gave me comfort. I found myself in the repetitive everyday walking back and forward in a city that was relatively new and unknown to me. Even though I felt safe and happy in my new home it was also a bit scary. Without me noticing I started giving shape to a new body of work that felt close to me in a less familiar place.

I sew together this towel with other pieces of fabric into a long ribbon in order to narrate the repetition of my everyday." Read the full conversation with Patricia Perales Garcia here
