Geraldine Padilla Matamoros

MA Fine Art

Geraldine studied architecture in Mexico, Italy, and India, focusing on vernacular and low-impact building techniques. She has worked in architecture firms in both the public and private sectors, ranging from accessibility projects to high-end interior design.

Four sculptures made of bronze. The texture resembles weaving and crochet, yet they are hard and cold. Despite their weight, they are small. The smaller pieces measure approximately 15x15cm, while the larger ones are about 18x30cm.

To better understand the human condition, environment, and social interactions, she completed a Master’s in Social Anthropology, conducting research on interactions between sheep and women within the Chamula indigenous group in Chamula, Chiapas, Mexico.

It is a video showing a woman walking through Norwich’s iconic places and places important for the artist like Dragon Hall, Maid Head Hotel, and Norwich Market.

She has followed sheep in New Zealand, Iceland, Spain, and the United Kingdom. Since 2014, she has found herself expressing through threads. She’s interested in weaving together history, geographies, everyday women’s stories, and textiles. With her final projects at Norwich University of the Arts, Geraldine goes beyond textiles and has begun exploring textile expression through bronze and video.

It is a piece that hangs from a wooden support. It measures 60x250cm. It is a combination of fabrics sewn together using different weaving techniques.
It is a set made with second-hand materials based on a traditional British grandma's house. The size is 59x57cm.
