Since I was born I was surrounded by the skillful hands of my parents and I continued with their tradition
which means much more than an occupation in my life, I seek that my passion for this be valued
in each of the pieces that I create.

To be an artist of my culture, to work with effort, knowledge, love and improvement, learning new designs and techniques every day.

"I learned how to make the process of making macanas out of necessity and because my artisan friends taught me. Every time I make a garment I feel great satisfaction and I "de-stress". I also feel joy that people like my work. "
Hermelinda Maldonado
CRAFTSWOMAN

"All day I dedicate myself to work doing my macanas in the Ikat technique. My husband is also dedicated to this, he was a shoemaker but the business was not good so I could teach him and he is now an expert and that gives me pride and excitement. Every time I start a club I think of the people who will be able to have it and take with them a piece of our tradition."
