She works mostly with a patchwork technique called Fundación paper piecing, making textile works on small and large format paper. Yanelis converts graphic drawings to textile. She maps in her head the impossible routes, the found paths, and the lost ones too. The canvas or fabric is usually a media support for any artist, but Yanelis needs to fragment it and assume the pieces as mental spaces for survival or ways of finding herself.
