The Art of Weaving: Looms of Teotitlan

By Maison Numen

“The art of weaving, it is not easy, not anyone can make this; total commitment is needed to develop the work.
This is as we popularly say, love of work.” 

Pedro Vasquez Sanchez

 

Don Pedro took us through the process of mat making in his home town, Teotitlán; also explains to us where many of the patterns come from, the ancient Mitlas, now an important archeological site in Oaxaca, where the Zapotecs come from.

 

Join us in learning about Don Pedro’s heritage, the art of weaving; above all, about the beautiful mats he makes with his fellow weavers.
