Paola Torres <\/p>\n

The Lost Code (Corrupted Data), explores the notion of loss in reference to the socialecomonic processes viably visible in the immediate landscape of Per\u00fa. The works, two hand made textiles woven in the traditional Andean technique of brocade, the threads disjointed and unthreaded \u2013 visually distrurbed and destructured. The weaves delicately point at community bonds, progressively cut and replaced. Torres N\u00fa\u00f1ez Del Prado positions the process of gentrification as a softer form of colonialization, one that robs a community of its riches, and vibrancy. The textile lie dormant \u2013 until touched, and interactive, their conductive thread turning them into an instrument. <\/p>\n

Paola Torres N\u00fa\u00f1ez Del Prado (b. 1979 Lima, Per\u00fa) pushes and blurs the lines between tangible visuality and the formative structures of sound. Torres N\u00fa\u00f1ez Del Prado work formulates a new modality of interaction, one that questions the placement of value, and examines the notions of transference, distortion and cross-modality. Selected exhibitions and performances have been held at: Malm\u00f6 Art Museum, Malm\u00f6, Sweden, Marabouparken, Stockholm, Sweden, Contemporary Art Museum (MAC) Lima, Per\u00fa, Andini nel Borgo – Candelo, Italy, Hunter College, CUNY, New York, U.S.A.
