Woven Textiles in Oaxaca

by Madison Bell

Under the flat, diffuse light of an overcast midday, a narrow alley in Oaxaca reveals a modest textile shop front where a shopkeeper stands behind a low wooden counter, adjusting a length of vibrant, hand-woven wool. The scene is dense with texture: stacks of folded textiles in deep cochineal reds and indigo blues pile high against the whitewashed adobe walls, which are marked by the subtle gray streaks of rain. A faded blue and white porcelain vase sits precariously on a shelf above, catching the dull ambient light, while a simple wooden chair cushion rests on the floor nearby, worn soft by years of use.
