This summer I photographed on assignment in Peru and Guatemala for Blue Moon Clothing featuring the hand crafted designs of indigenous women from Pucallpa, Peru and Weaving Women (weavingwomen.org), an organization dedicated to the practices of indigenous weavers of Guatemala. In both experiences I was privileged to witness the skill and craftsmanship of indigenous textile making as demonstrated by the women who made it. Living in the United States, where we’re far removed from the clothes that we buy, it was a rewarding experience to witness this sustainable and homegrown practice.
