Artisan - María Margarita Hernández Pérez
San Cristobal de las Casas, Mexico
My childhood is summarized in learning to weave on a backstrap loom and dedicating myself to selling the pieces I make. Still, the lack of resources made me leave my town Zinacantan to move to San Cristobal to sell my products, and I was doing well, but when the pandemic came, everything stopped, and I could not sell anything. I had to sell my work cheaply to avoid running out of that income.
