Synopsis "Hebra de Agua (Fuera de Órbita) (in Spanish)"

With an artistic and modern visual aesthetic, the author has created an incredible book that emphasizes texture and compiles photographs of textile pieces that act as independent works of art.Con una estética visual artística y moderna, a partir de ilustraciones textiles, la autora elabora un bello libro de cuidada edición. El libro-objeto se ha realizado con cubierta de cartoné en tela y estampación serigráfica, el interior se compone de fotografías de piezas textiles que funcionan como cuadros independientes. Se incluye un díptico vegetal que sirve para proporcionar varios niveles de lectura a las páginas donde se inserta. “Este libro es un río y una cascada y un poema que se deshace en agua. Dedicado a todas las madres de todas las hijas que a veces mentimos.” Hebra de agua es un canto a la madre: Mamá no pide un deseo, pide tres. Pide cuatro. Mamá baila locamente. Se hace vapor, se hace nube, se la lleva el viento.

View Author's Page
Gimena Romero is a Mexican visual artist born in 1985, known for her work in textile art, particularly in contemporary embroidery. Throughout her career, she has developed an artistic proposal that combines technique, memory, and emotion, using thread as a medium for deep and symbolic expression. Her work explores themes such as identity, the body, migration, trauma, and personal and collective history.

Trained in plastic and visual arts, she complemented her education at national and international institutions, and has consolidated an interdisciplinary approach that intertwines art, therapy, and research. Since 2008, she has made embroidery her main language, experimenting with materials like antique fabrics, hair, natural pigments, and altered photographs, and taking her works to exhibitions in America and Europe.

Besides her artistic work, Gimena is the author of several books that address embroidery from a technical, cultural, and creative perspective. She also teaches workshops online and in person, where she shares ancestral knowledge of traditional Mexican embroidery and promotes its contemporary reinterpretation.

Gimena Romero sees embroidery as a poetic and bodily act, a tool for healing, resisting, and narrating, and a way to reconnect with personal and cultural roots through manual creation.
