Conceptual Garments Designer, Producer, Conceptualization and Content editor for the Sci Fi Caracas . Industrial Landscapes Exhibition. Project Statement Designer Ela Acosta
3 meanings: Elegance, Rooted to Electronic Music, Polyurethane more than just a material to build with, it is the concept itself. Is like a story being told in the mind. Concept Design is the basis of any project, visualizing the endless ideas one can imagine that seen impossible to become a reality, now with technology is possible. It is how the designer imagines a world in the Era of Light, the next era for mankind and how these more evolved humans will develop their movement through clothes. Ela Acosta dreams of a future with another energy source, therefore she depicts this era of plastic, to show its eventual collapse, and to generate a new reality. The concept of all her collections in general is: “to push towards the future� Extract from webpage.

textile explorations Abstractions & Composition
Project Statement The work presents a fraction of an overwhelming reality. Highly and continuously put into discussion, affected by it, through violence and delinquency. The everyday life of the city comes with an inevitable and profound immersion in fragility and in conflict contexts. How do we truly live it? In an attempt to embrace it, remember it, and transform it, the work comes with a severe abstraction of form and color where our daily life can be lived on, TEXTILE. As it happens every day, we do not know exactly what this parallel worlds and realities are or what happens in them, but they affect us, leaves us with marks, vague memories of a deficit and a debt. CAN WE LIVE IN VIOLENCE? Such as in Reality, the original photograph is lost in translation, retrieved from a sea of documentation of this fragments of city in the form of pictures on a vast set of information we call internet, the image is reformed, repeated and colour altered to create a new land, with a vague hint of where it comes from and what its true origin is, a land we can insert into our everyday lives. This is an imminent reality of our era, from small to large, from precise to vast, from local to global. These are fragments left from our world and its current development. CAN WE LIVE THEM? WE CAN FRAME THEM.

Untraditional Landscapes Explorations
Project Statement Navigating through emotions, Art becomes a channel of life vivid expressions, knowledge, passions and experiences. In an attempt to draw an emotional landscape, one capable of revealing the human intensity, often unwatchable and incomprehensive the work is put together through material expressions of color pigments on paper for its later fragmentation through photography, on a process focused on finding new dimensions of the landscape through a close look, discovering new scenarios and portraits as it happens in life, where emotions are taken as instants, but always sweep into the overall humanity notion upon emotions, self awareness and subconscious.
