Fragments of Soul

Débora Sánchez Viqueira

Tapestries

In Unexpected tapestries, painting expands beyond the canvas into the language of textile. Hand embroidered in alpaca wool, these artworks are not a departure from the artist’s practice, but a natural evolution of her visual language, where the human figure, geometry and symbolism converge with quiet elegance. Here, thread replaces the brush without losing the gesture. Every stitch records time and the presence of the artist’s hand, transforming embroidery into an extension of painting. The tactile richness of alpaca introduces a new sensory dimension, where texture and relief deepen the viewer’s experience of the work. Rather than revisiting textile traditions, these works position fiber as a contemporary artistic language. The recurring eye, a defining element throughout the Unexpected series, becomes a symbol of perception, awareness and human connection, inviting multiple interpretations. In these works, painting does not disappear, it simply learns to speak through thread.
