About

Old family portraits, clothes & stories passed along for four generations,

objects & places that evoke memories;

through fashion the world of Puerta Negra creates a non-linear encounter

between past, present & future.

Contemporaneity synthesizes nostalgia,

and a romanticized vision of Venezuela’s past,

into a wormhole-like aesthetic through an autobiographical quest.

Puerta Negra explores themes of duality between irreverence and tradition, creation and destruction, ephemerality & transcendence

across garments and wearable narratives.
