The Rostros are a series of abstract textile portraits that depict individual faces. In addition to anatomical features like mouths, noses, ears, and hair, the Rostros are patterned with what could be perceived as wrinkles, scars, or tattoos — records of their lived experiences, origins, tribal affiliations. Their corresponding environmental backgrounds help explain how the Rostros live in the world. They look directly at the viewer with open eyes, telling stories of where they came from, and where they are going.
