Análisis de la cromática y los elementos morfológicos repetitivos dentro del traje típico de la chola cuencana, para su aplicación en elementos del espacio interior

Abstract

The “Chola cuencana” traditional costume is one of the main touristic attractions in our city. Its colors and symbols are carefully applied in each piece, questioning why the application of repetitive patterns could be viable within the construction of identity without creating a fake historical item, but incorporating it as an alternative in interior design. The current graduation project is an artistic proposal based on research-creation, paying tribute to the research line of creation and production of arts and design. Its objective is to analyze the morphological elements and the chromatics repeated continuously in the “Chola cuencana” traditional costume and formed by the hat, braids, earrings, blouse, shawl (macana), skirt, and canvas shoes. It creates a pattern that becomes the matrix for creating constitutive elements of interior spaces such as floors, walls, and furniture. The morphological analysis of components that are dominantly found in the traditional costume is used as the primary resource to incorporate them in the interior space. Finally, this project shows the results obtained and applied to interior spaces of a redesign proposal for tourism offices in Cuenca and opens an alternative to use these designs in future constructions.
