Vestigios Collection - 2025

This collection explores the idea of what remains — not only personally, but culturally. Inspired by the Manteño civilization, an ancient coastal culture from Ecuador, these works are deeply rooted in my heritage. Through textured surfaces, soft tones, and abstract elements, I evoke ancestral memory, timeworn paths, and spiritual footprints. Traces is a visual meditation on identity, legacy, and the silent presence of the past.
