Her visit to Japan was crucial to her life and her work, as important as Peru or the sojourns in the small towns of the Colombian highlands. Indigo was etched in her mind because of the Japanese textiles and their ultramarine tones. For Olga, indigo is the color of liberty, of an open mind, a reminder of the mountains in Santander province of Colombia or North Carolina, dream visions, water and wind, the intense purity of color.
