HI!
MY NAME IS ANA
MARÍA.
I am a 25 year
old bogotanian
woman. who
believes in the
design that
beyond worrying
about objects,
takes care and
focus on the
impact that
they provoke on
the attitudes,
behaviors and
relationships
between
people who
have their own
expectations,
feelings, values
and wishes.

The story is about
two studentes who
were murdered in a
colombian beach.
AN
IMMORTAL
GOODBYE
This time the
concept to work
with was space, so
a huge house used
as a pub deposit,
full of chairs, tables,
lights, decoration and
history was given to
continue telling the
story.
SPACE
An amount of an
area or of a place
that is empty or that
is available for use.

PALOMINO
It is located on the
caribbean high road,
on the bank of the
Palomino river, near
the caribbean sea
coast.
“”
*
The objective of
this project was to
build a place that
could host reunions
and rehearsals of
Palomino`s dance
and percussion
group Sirimapa.
The construction
must be designed
and built using
guadua sticks.
Is an approach
to design that
attempts to involve
all stakeholders in
the design process,
including customers,
citizens, users, so
the result is surely
needed and usable.
PARTICIPATORY

In team
with
New territories`s
students and
teachers and
all Palomino`s
people who
helped with their
own hands and
resources.
Design
is
social.

This was a
photography, cinema
and design contest,
organized by VANS,
whose idea was
to find out how
people live and share
Bogotá.
I participated in the
design category
where the purpose
was to make an
illustration for a
pair of classic VANS
shoes.

CADENCE
Cadencia
EN
SP
Cadence is the name
of a project which
seeks to make
bogotanians aware
of the accelerated
rythm we live in. The
purpose is to make
a pause.
This rythm and life
style is also making
us forget, so another
objective is to give
people the chance
to think about the
eastern hills and
take a look at them,
because they are
almost invisible to
our eyes thanks to
the large number of
high buildings that
have become our
view nowadays.
Lets save
our eastern
hills.

EASTER HILLS
An orographic
system located to
the east of Bogota,
which serves as
a natural border
of the city. Many
water sources are
born along its 14000
hectares area.
“”
The
eastern
hills as an
archetype
of place
where
collective
reference
points and
individual
marks,
history and
memory
are mixed.

WOMAN
Mujer
SP
EN
All infinitive verbs in
Spanish end in ar, er
or ir. Mujer means
woman, and ends
in er, just like an
infinitive verb, so lets
think of woman as
an action.
his project is in construction, it keeps evolving.
INIFINITIVE
The basic form of a
verb such as be or
run. In English, an
infinitive its used by
itself.
“”
I started by writing
the word woman in
as many ways as
possible, using any
kind of materials
and techniques, to
the point there is no
more writing, instead
there is building,
weaving, sticking,
entangling...

The word
itself
represents
an action,
the act
of being
thought
and
written.
what we
see is
just the
result, its
existance
is a whole
process.
