Juana Gómez’s Embroidered Family Photos Chilean artist...



















Juana Gómez’s Embroidered Family Photos

Chilean artist Juana Gómez utilizes weaving and embroidery to explore the themes of genealogy, mythology, and biology within her own female lineage. Her hand-embroidered photographic canvases combine the spheres of scientific exploration with ancestral tradition. Weaving complex scientific and mythological patterns on to images of both her own and her daughters’ bodies, her work is interested in placing mankind within a broader context of interconnectivity.
