Paulo Morales Peña y Lillo.

Lives and works in Santiago, Chile

Artist statement

I am inspired by a Chilean Cultural Tradition ("Horsehair knit";"Tejido en Crin de Caballo"), I am responsable for the dialog in between basketry and goldsmith having my vision as a mean of expression. I am also inspired by the LGBTQ+ Community movement, that´s why I use COLORS inspiring myself in Gilbert Baker´s rainbow flag design. My work is 100% handmade, and the knitting design proposal has been developed by myself to fit jewelry as a new artistic concept. The world needs new ideas and I am opening new personal roads. If you are interested have a look in my work and DM for any doubt you may have. Have a good day. My name is Paulo but my friends call me @paulisssssimo.
