In this workshop, we will investigate the landscape as a sensitive and affective territory. Using photographic images presented to the group, this territory will be observed, schematized, and translated onto paper through areas of color, lines, and textures.

This initial mapping functions as a visual cartography, which will give rise to a paper embroidery, constructed from sewing techniques and embroidery stitches.

The focus is not on the faithful representation of the image, but on the creation of an embroidered landscape that articulates visual and tactile textures, traversed by the desire, observation, and gesture of each participant.

Objetivos
Investigate the landscape as an affective cartography, translating photographic images into paper embroidery through experimentation with lines, stitches, and textures.

Experience embroidery as a practice of pause, care, and connection with oneself and one’s surroundings.
Create a space for collective exchange, where different perspectives and experiences meet.
