Abstract

Elaborating on the concept of language as an element that constructs, constitutes, shapes and determines personal and social values, this article questions ideas regarding creative production and its relationship with sustainable processes of empathy. Using self reflection as a tool to explore the elements present in the production of the work of the author, as a fashion designer/ textile artist, this article highlights the tension and conflict between feelings of dislocation and their relationship with theoretical interests that have informed the creative processes of the author. A theoretical exploration of her creative production as a Latina immigrant in New Zealand and the displacement in terms of her self-perception informs the basis of this writing.
