Cecilia Paredes combines themes found in nature—origins, transformation, and her body—to acquire multiple identities through a blend of sculptural recreations and photography. Paredes explores these themes through photo performances in which she camouflages her body against patterned backdrops and vanishes amongst the ornamentation. In her photographs, she is so immersed in her surroundings that we can hardly tell where her body begins and ends.
