Marcela Dyer is the founder and designer of the label Myriam Marcela. Her work is known for attention to detail, expert craftsmanship, and consciously sourced materials. She is originally from Monterrey, México, and currently resides in Portland. As a Mexican designer living in the United States, Marcela has a passion to integrate creative talent among different cultures.
In her Artist Talk, Marcela discusses “Gosson-Ku (Scorpion)”, 2007, and “Den Muso (Young Girl)”, 1986, by Ronna Neuenschwander, and how they relate to her work as a fashion designer. What is most special about this talk is that Marcela had the opportunity to talk to Ronna Neuenschwander about these sculptures.
