"The material, it arrives.
I have some works that only exist because the material has found its way to me. I don't plan to make a piece
and then go buy the fabrics. This doesn't cross my mind. The moment the materials come into my life, I feel a responsibility to them and to the
people who bring them to me. I work out of a necessity to transform things—and I've always had this need. I began by taking clothing apart to
make things just for myself. I didn't decide one day that I was going to be an artist. It just happened." —Sônia Gomes
