Artisan - Alicia Gómez Dominguez
Zinacantan, Mexico
When I was twenty years old, my sister taught me to weave the loom because no one else in my house knew how to do it. So, over the years, I improved as I saw that they were selling. When I set the fair price most of the times the customers do not want to pay it and they bargain and do not think about the time and effort it takes me to make my pieces. As the economic situation is not the good, I end up selling them so at least I can recover the materials cost.
