Materials and Techniques: Technique: Wet felting and embrodery. Material: merino wool, artesanal dieying, silk treads, glass beads.

Inspiration: Alfred Nobel was an inventor of the 19th century. who saw his work used for war purposes. When he died, he designated part of his fortune for the annual award that bears his name, to those who stood out for the peace of humanity. My work summarizes this trajectory with the use of texture and color.
