Paola Rodriguez is a visual artist and designer originally from Colombia now based in Europe since 2002.
With a background in fashion, jewellery and ceramic design she created her own ready to wear label in 2011 which slowly evolved into a capsule collection of one a kind handmade garments made using traditional sewing and embroidery techniques.
Finding an excess of leftover materials from her collections she started to incorporate these into her drawings and sketches to create unique decorative works.
Her current artistic practice encompasses fibre, paint and discarded materials as mediums and is characterised by her obsession with slow/handmade processes and the relationship that exists between texture, color and shape.
Symbolic and found objects as well as figures and natural landscapes are recurring themes in her work.
