About

Jose Romussi proposes a creative exercise based on experimentation with materials related to textile art. We appreciate a delicate and subtle yet aberrant and enigmatic proposal. Jose succeeded in completing a rebellious, generational and contemporary discourse, a reflection in tension with the atavistic and the ornamental. Its manufacture gives way to free and unstructured embroidery, emphasizing the use of organic materials that make up an imperfect and expressionist geometric composition. Embroidering on unusual supports whose origins have been reverted, he manages to high a poetic image in constant mobility and significance.
