I AM PAMELA B O TE R O , A PE R S O N WH O FINDS BEAUTY IN THE DETAILS OF LIFE. I EXPRESS MYSELF THR O UGH THE SMALL THINGS , THOSE SMALL THINGS THAT BECOME GREAT THROUGH THEIR VALUE AND THEIR UNIQUE WAY OF BEING SPECIAL. THROUGH THE ART OF CREATING GARMENTS , I FIND A WAY TO EXPRESS MYSELF, REFLECTING MY ESSENCE, THE WAY I SEE THE WORLD, MY DREAMS , AND MY GREATEST ASPI RATIONS .
MY COLLECTION, NO STALGIA EFÍME RA, REVOLVES AROUND THE IDEALI ZATION OF WHAT ONCE WAS BUT I SNOL ONGER . THE CONCEPT OF
BEAUTY, UNDERSTOOD THR OUGH NO STALGIA, SUGGESTS THAT ALTHOUGH
BEAUTY IS FLEETING, IT CAN ENDUR EOVER TIME THROUGH MEMORY. THE
MEMORY OF WHAT WAS BEAUTIFUL BECOMES LONGING, DRIVEN BY THE
DESIRET OR EVIVE IT.
IN THIS COLLECTION, THE WORN-OUT NEWSPAPER PRINTS EVOKE THAT
SENSE OF NO STALGIA, WHILE THE EMBRO IDERED BRIGHT THR EADS
SUGGEST THAT, EVEN AS TIME PASSES , THERE IS A GLOW THAT REMAINS .
THE HEXAGONAL SHAPES AT THE EDGES OF THE GARMENTS , THE
TRANSPA RENCIES , AND THE SILH OUETTES THAT COMBINE RIGIDITY AND
FLUIDITY REFLECT THE DUALITY BETWEEN WHAT FADES AND WHAT
REMAINS . EVERY DETAIL IN MY CREATIONS SEEKS TO CAPTURE THAT
BLEND BETWEEN THE PAST AND MEMORY, CONNECTING THE EPHEMERAL
WITH THE ETERNAL.
