En Trace, la flor Tagetes erecta se convierte en autora de su propia imagen. El color que brota de sus pétalos imprime sobre papel de algodón su propio autorretrato: una huella que es al mismo tiempo presencia y desvanecimiento.
Here, form and colour emerge from the same botanical origin. The image does not fix itself; it reveals itself in transit—fragile, suspended, open to change. A mark whose permanence is uncertain, like a vulnerable shape held at that moment.
The natural pigment—born from the very matter it depicts—holds the possibility of transformation.
What is colour today may become a trace tomorrow.
Screen printing executed with natural pigment manually extracted from the petals of the Tagetes erecta flower. Printed on handmade cotton paper. The use of natural pigments inevitably involves an element of uncertainty: exposed to the passage of time, light, and air, these colours may oxidise, fade, or transform. This ephemeral condition is not a flaw, but an extension of the poetic gesture: the natural, like memory, is mutable.
