Fanesca is a self-funded body of work reflecting on how foreign influences alter identity in Latin America nowadays. In this autoethnographic exploration, Dávila digs into his Spanish and Ecuadorian heritage.

 

Fanesca reflects on cultural identity within fashion, as well as the nostalgia of a society. It has been named Fanesca after a traditional dish prepared only during Easter that combines Spanish religious beliefs with Indigenous traditions in Ecuador.  The body of work analyzes how styling the self affects identity in the Ecuadorian population. This ongoing project, currently in its fourth phase, reflects on cultural identity within fashion, as well as the nostalgia of a society.

Fanesca has caught the media’s attention in all of its phases being featured in Vogue, Forbes, Metal Magazine, Lula Japan, among other publications around the world.
