Biography
Natalia Martìnez was born in Burgos, Spain.
She studied Art Restoration in her hometown, completing her studies in Fashion Design in Milan, the city where she settled for a period of her life. Through her experience in fashion, she became interested in different textile materials from an alternative perspective: ribbons obtained from cut fabric. The union of her passion for tailoring and her previous studies led her to a love for precision and repetitive manual work, as well as increasing the importance of color in processes. Thus was born her passion for masks, an object that has been present since the dawn of humanity.
Her works are created through the crochet technique, which she wanted to elevate to a more complex and free level, getting rid of the consolidated flat patterns with traditional and natural fibers to give life to the possibility of improvisation, transforming the flat knit into three-dimensional with a sculptural approach through ribbons, fibers and hardware materials, considered less noble and waste. This experimentation with the technique led her to the study of irregular and intangible faces. Her
work is approached with the precision of the profession and the utmost spontaneity, bringing her into a dimension that combines art and craftsmanship.
