Las manos de las tejedoras oaxaquenas son voces que hablan un lenguaje cifrado, pues convierten el entorno, los mitos, la vida cotidiana y la poesia en telas de gran belleza. Estos textiles dan cuenta de que en Oaxaca hay tantas maneras de tejer como riquezas naturales y que las manos de estas artesanas son capaces de crear piezas que, como dirian ellas, emborrachan la vista. ENGLISH: The hands of weavers from Oaxaca speak a coded language. They turn the landscape, myths, everyday life and poetry into extraordinarily beautiful designs. These textiles demonstrate that there are as many weaving methods in Oaxaca as there are natural wonders, and that artisans hands are able to create pieces that are visually intoxicating.
