“One of my greatest joys as a steward of my village’s legacy is mentoring the next generation of weavers”

—Wenceslao Martinez

Master weaver Wenceslao Martinez combines his Zapotec heritage with over fifty years of weaving experience to create contemporary tapestries from hand spun, hand dyed Churro wool. Tonal variations and graceful curves demonstrate Wenceslao’s innate color skills and technical prowess.

Wenceslao can often be found working at his loom on either his own geometric designs or Sandra’s symbolist imagery.
