TEXTIL BOTANY

SILVESTRE
 

silvestre

Silvestre is a reinterpretation of ignored beauty. Inspired by the strength of so-called 'weeds,' this collection elevates wild flora to the realm of botanical art. Through recycled textiles and a contemporary gaze, I transform the ephemeral and discarded into eternal pieces, demonstrating that in nature there are no hierarchies, only cycles of life.

THE TECNIQUE

HERITAGE & HAUTE COUTURE

I create these pieces using the art of silk flower making, an ancient technique that traveled the Silk Road to European Haute Couture ateliers. Each petal is hand-modeled with traditional tools, intervening the silk with natural dyeing materials and Haute Couture finishes. This process of working with heat and organic coloration endows the piece with unmatched depth and vibration, merging the memory of the craft with the alchemy of matter.

THE ORIGIN

INDIGENOUS LANDSCAPE

The color palette and organic shapes are born from direct observation of the Sierra de Ávila. An ode to Iberian biodiversity and the rich textures of our wild environment.
