“This work is the result of a reflection on the impact of diagnoses and the inherent danger of confining a person’s identity to a clinical label. It is inspired by my own experience with a Type II bipolar diagnosis, which led to the erasure of my deeper identity.

This experience made me aware of the danger of generalizing and reducing people to a single characteristic or diagnosis. We live in a world where it is easy to simplify, categorize, and lose sight of the complexities that make us unique. Whether it involves religion, gender, sexuality, or any other difference, this tendency to simplify fragments and limits our ability to understand and connect.

This piece is a call to question these simplistic frameworks, to resist the temptation to encapsulate identities, and to embrace the complexities that make us human. It is a testament to my own journey toward integration and a reminder that looking beyond labels and divisions that separate us can be transformative.”

Ana Pau Noriega is a Mexican artist living and working in Mexico City. Her beginnings in textile art were marked by travels to different regions of Mexico, where she trained directly with recognized masters of local textile craftsmanship. This contact with traditional techniques nurtured her creative vision and developed her commitment to the preservation and reinterpretation of Mexico's textile cultural heritage.

Her artistic approach is the fruit of a deeply intimate vision, but as each piece develops, she seeks to elevate it to a universal perspective that invites connection and collective reflection. Many of her works are grounded in social research that explores themes such as identity and cultural tradition.

In 2018, she founded KREYÉ, a textile studio dedicated to creating unique pieces that establish a dialogue between art, design and craft. Today, Kreyé is a textile studio where works are created that are developed with heritage and respect for tradition, while celebrating experimentation in the expression of an integral and personal sensibility.


Increasingly, she is evolving her practice towards works whose symbolic significance speaks to us of the different social dynamics of the world around her, and of the passage of time as a fundamental process of transformation and evolution, particularly relevant in our time, when immediacy and pressure push us to resist change. Through her materials, wool and silk, she tells us how emotional wounds are slowly healed, each moment lived contributing to moving us forward. The pieces, interwoven with tension and fluidity, symbolize the need to let time pass with compassion, recognizing both the traces it leaves and the learning it brings. It invites us to reflect on change as an essential, non-disruptive element in the natural process of time, enabling us to evolve towards a fuller version of ourselves.
