Each rug is entirely handcrafted using natural wool, woven on traditional foot looms, and colored with natural dyes. The creation process is intentionally slow and meticulous, requiring great care, patience, and artisanal knowledge at every stage — from dye preparation to weaving and finishing. Produced in collaboration with the Sánchez family of Santa Ana in the Tlacolula Valley of Oaxaca, these works celebrate both contemporary artistic expression and generations of textile craftsmanship.

Martin Ferreyra

Born in Córdoba, Argentina, this artist brings together a background in psychology and a largely self-taught artistic practice to create a body of work that is both instinctive and deeply symbolic. Now based in Oaxaca, Mexico, his work moves fluidly between painting and ceramics, where he has developed a distinctive visual language and his own line of sculptural objects.

His universe is populated by hybrid figures, ancestral echoes, and dreamlike forms—an evolving mythology through which he explores identity, ritual, and the invisible threads that connect personal and collective memory. Drawing from the richness of Latin American traditions as well as his international experiences, his practice reflects a dialogue between the contemporary and the archaic.

Over the past decade, he has exhibited widely across Europe and the Americas, with solo shows in Mexico, Spain, the Netherlands, France, and the United States, and has participated in residencies and festivals in countries including Denmark, Canada, Uruguay, and Argentina.

Working from his studio in Etla, just outside Oaxaca City, he continues to experiment across mediums while collaborating with local artisans in ceramics, textiles, and printmaking—expanding his practice into a multidisciplinary exploration of material, culture, and form.
