Artisan - Alberta Rosa Vazquez Perez
Zinacantan, Mexico

When I was little, I used to watch my mother and my older sisters working on the backstrap looms but since I had not yet learned how to do it, I used to gather the leftover thread to make bracelets that I sold them to tourists. Later, they taught me how to work the loom and then I started making different pieces that I began to sell and that I have been selling for several years.
