Biography

Jovencio de la Paz is an artist, weaver, and educator. Their current work explores the intersecting histories of weaving and modern computers. Rhyming across millennia, the stories of weaving and computation unfold as a space of speculation. Trained in traditional processes of weaving, dye, and stitchwork but reveling in the complexities and contradictions of digital culture, they work to find relationships between concerns of language, embodiment, pattern, and code and broad concerns of ancient technology, speculative futures, and the phenomenon of emergence. Currently, de la Paz is an assistant professor and curricular head of fibers at the University of Oregon.
