A Chirp for the Future ✨ . 📍Colegio Menendez Pelayo . C/ López de Vega nº 15. Santander, Spain. . I was fascinated by the close connection between nature and education, at the Mendez Pelayo School. It's possible to find it everywhere, from the tiles that decorate the school to its garden. The birds complement this fundamental harmony. A symbol of positive change, wisdom and the importance of sharing the same branch. . Thank you to @desvelarte festival for the invitation and to @confeere_ for the help! . 5000 screws 5km of natural wool 2019 . . #crossstitch #crossstitchwall#embroidery #streetart #urbanart#textile #installation #wool #fish#goldfish #aheneah

No glass to hold me back 💫 — A quick look over the kids of this kindergarten was enough to bring me old memories and feelings. Spending hours with my nose glued to the glass of the aquarium in my classroom. I loved how that fish moved so quick and swiftly, never accepting those glass walls as a limitation. As Capicua best put it "Não há vidro que me prive, nem o céu é o limite — There’s no glass to hold me back, nor the sky is the limit" . Thank you @quetevas , mum, grandmothers and the rest of my unbelievable team to make this possible. . 📍Jardim de Infância “O Nosso Mundo”, Apelação, Lisboa, Portugal . Under the invitation of @louresartepublica 7,5x5meters 10km of wool 15000 screws . #crossstitch #crossstitchwall #embroidery #streetart #urbanart #textile #installation #wool #fish #goldfish #aheneah

Switch-over | Cross stitch on wall ✨ Every day, for many years, thousands of kids pass by this wall while going from home to school and from school to home. Most of the time just floating in their thoughts, lost in space, time and routine. Until their paths have to change directions. This happened to me a few years ago. With more than 2300 screws and 700 meters of yarn, this piece is now part of the city where I was born and grew up in. . . . #crossstitch #crossstitchonwall #embroidery #streetart #urbanart #textile #installation #floatingbodies #wool #wallart #aheneah

Semear (to sow) 🍃 . It all starts with a seed. An artistic movement that one century later inspired this installation. A whole forest or, after a wildfire, its reforestation. A tradition or simply the needed change. . My huge thanks to @fazunchar.fv for the opportunity to be part of this new dynamic of Figueiró dos Vinhos. Two years after a wildfire in this Portugal district is more important than ever to sow. Ideas, projects and a brightening future. It was an honor to be part of this team: @mistakermaker @laraseixorodrigues @dbcavalinhos @_silvatiago_ @monk.scriptorium @julio_acab @mohamedlghacham @halfstudiosigns @nksarmento @_ruteferraz @framedvasco @lata_65 @municipiodefigueiro . 7km of wool 6500 screws 2019 📍Praça Simões de Almeida, Figueiró dos Vinhos, Portugal . 📸 @_ruteferraz . #crossstitch #crossstitchwall#embroidery #streetart #urbanart#textile #installation #wool #aheneah

Immérge Under the invitation of @pdvstreetart 📍Maison des Association, Bayonne, France — Living in the age of technology can make us forget that we are still humans living in a complex, rich, yet fragile ecosystem. Sometimes we don’t need to upgrade or add anything into our lives but instead to take a break, go back to the true essence and dive into nature. When was the last time you stopped to enjoy its flow? . This installation was inspired by Bayonne, a city bordered by the river “la Nive” and its natural protected area “Plaine d’Ansot”. — This wouldn’t be possible without all the help of Points de Vue team, volunteers and visitors: @albanmorlot / Gildas / Anais / Louise / Stéphane / Noemi / Léa / Eziz / Marie / Iris / Corinne / Félix / Béatrice / Elsa / Maïténa / Amandine / Audrey / Lucie / Cécile / Alice / Odile / Marie-Yannick / Lola / Delphine / Loréa. A huge huge thanks to each one of you! It was a pleasure to meet you and to work in the beautiful city of Bayonne. — 15000 screws, 14km of wool, 6×3,70 meters. . . . #crossstitch#crossstitchwall#embroidery #streetart#urbanart#textile #installation #wool #aheneah
