Back to the Roots
This series explores themes of identity, heritage, and the powerful connection to the land and the stories that shape us.
Marisa’s work serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of honoring our roots and the cultural narratives that ground us.
The body of work presents a compelling textile installation that intertwines large garments with the evocative strength of ancient European columns symbolizing the profound connection between Marisa’s South American roots and her memories. These monumental textile pieces represent the support system for her personal world and belongings, embodying the interwoven nature of her identity.
