Sonia Gomes — Raízes series #1
Sonia Gomes

Raízes series #1

2020

A striking sculptural work by Brazilian artist Sonia Gomes, this piece from her *Raízes* (Roots) series weaves together found fabrics, threads, and materials into an organic, entangled form that evokes the complexity of roots systems and ancestral connection. Gomes's signature technique of binding, twisting, and layering textiles speaks to themes of identity, memory, and the African diaspora. The work pulses with a raw, living energy, as though the materials themselves carry the weight and resilience of generations.
