Beginner’s Tapestry Workshop- 4th Edition: 14/11/26

Born in Colombia, I spent my childhood between Cartagena de Indias, Mexico City, and Madrid. 

I now live in Barcelona. I’m a textile artist, and through my work, I aim to bridge the physical and cultural distances between Europe and Latin America, weaving together the worlds that exist within me.

I’m fascinated by traditional crafts, experimenting with materials and textures, and creating unique pieces that carry symbolic meaning. My practice is eclectic and constantly evolving, combining techniques like high-warp weaving and tufting with materials such as jute, hemp, wool, cotton, and silk. Gold often features in my work as a nod to the pre-Columbian cultures of my homeland.

I work in the format of wall hangings, woven sculpture  and artistic installations, for  personal projects, collaborations, and private commissions. My inspiration comes from nature in all its forms, my Colombian roots, and the ancestral world, always seen through a feminine perspective.

We’ll work with small individual looms, leftover fabrics from INDOI’s production, natural fibre threads, and a few surprise elements along the way.

You’ll have the chance to experiment with your creativity while Alex and Mallika share a bit of my own artistic process. 

Together, we’ll discover how to let your imagination flow and connect with a tradition that’s both ancient and full of craft. It’s a space to create, relax, and enjoy the process together.

No previous experience needed.

You' go home with basics skills on how to weave, an exploration into your own creativity,  a woven piece created by you. and perhaps some news friends!
