Amoros’s fascination with bodies of water began in her childhood in Lima, Peru, where she lived near the Pacific Ocean. She fondly remembers exploring the shore and being mesmerized by the foam created by the waves. Influenced by the interplay of wind and sunlight, this natural spectacle sparked her latest project: CAPPED WAVES. Available in three sizes—6 inches, 9 inches, and 12 inches—these pieces aim to capture various aspects of the foam’s essence. Designed for easy handling, they invite tactile exploration, deepening the viewer’s connection to the artwork. Its reflective surface aims to have the viewer remember and reflect on a time that made them feel curious, like the spume of the ocean did for Amoros. Each piece features a unique custom-made lighting sequence inspired by the artist’s specific memories of the ocean, ranging from crashing waves to the gentle ebb and flow of the foam.
