Tejedoras / Weavers (2024 - ongoing)
Migrations are not solely the movement of people; they represent a cultural exodus, a rupture, a threat to centuries of tradition. In Ecuadorian and Guatemalan indigenous communities this exodus puts at risk hundreds of years of ancestral knowledge.
Tejedoras mirrors the tactile depth of weaving, framing textiles as a universal language. As migration threatens cultural continuity, these images honor the Tejedoras who stitch together past and future, ensuring their heritage is borderless and endless. A textile is not just a piece of cloth, it is a language of survival.
Tejedoras was first presented in 2025 at the International Center of Photography as part of Look Up, Graduates Exhibition. NYC, New York.Tejedoras, 2025
