In the early years of her career Miriam Londoño was interested in povera art, specialists and the group Soporte-Superficie. Now her work is intimately linked to a specific material that is the center of her work: paper, with all the cultural and metaphorical load that drags: "The interest," she says, "in the expressive possibilities of this support, the fabric and the surface, led me to the manufacture of handmade paper." She learned to make it during her stay in Argentina in the nineties. She continued to refine this process in Poland, where she concentrated on making it from the fibers of different plants. Later, in Thailand, she continued with this experimentation and involved photographs, oxides, layers, textures, newspapers and fire, among other elements. This search has allowed her to "engage in a dialogue with a surface full of meanings throughout the centuries: the role of memory bearer par excellence before the discovery of the Internet," she admits.
