Jade
Hills covered in grass, wet earth, deep breaths.
Grassland Bracelet.

Origin
I once read an interview where an artist couple was asked how they learnt their craft. We had to make a lot of mistakes until we got really good –they replied– and then we had to get bad again, because being really good is not that interesting.

Relic
I tend to have lucid dreams in which fears that are usually at the back of my mind act out as characters. In my latest dream, I am visiting an old amusement park made of mud and rock. I used to visit it when I was younger to play in the shallow pools, hiding treasures in stone temples.
Now I am there with Abhaya and we are given a tour. The place seems slightly different, but not much, except that things move around as I look at them. Bits of land turn into islands and float away, and shrines slide off walls. One contains a weathered Nintendo console I once hid, but it drifts off as soon as I recognize it.
For fun, I decide to jump off a cliff into a deep pool, but as I fall and fall and fall I wonder why I never reach the water. The guide tells me I am not really falling. I am on a platform that is simulating a fall through virtual reality technology. I am perplexed. The world is no longer as I know it.

Bracelets
My wrists have been unadorned for a long time. I think it's time to make bracelets...
Shop Update
Last week I decided to make rings with two layers of feathers because I needed more power to fly.
As I explored the possibilities of a single idea to create this series, my curiosity was awakened, my mind was engaged, and my work leapt forward.
Never underestimate the power of intention.

Fábrica Social
My friends at Fabrica Social came to my studio a few months ago to take pictures of me at work. I have collected their clothing for many years, and here I am wearing my favorite huipil top from their most recent collection. Each piece is lovingly made by talented artisans across Mexico.
If you are in Mexico City, I recommend that you visit their beautiful store downtown, and their showroom in the colonia Roma.

Connection
My mom and I spent the day downtown. We have been going there to get fabric, findings and art supplies since I was little. We walked for blocks admiring ancient buildings, museum exhibits, crowds of people, and our favorite shops. Whenever I go, I feel a deeper connection to this incredible city.
