Salasaka Tapestries - Rudy Masaquiza
Rudy Masaquiza states that "the main economic activities are agriculture, livestock-raising and handcrafts, which they begin learning from a very early age".
Salasaka people made exquisite tapestries, which are woven by hand on looms of very ancient technology. Many of the designs depict different aspects of their lives. They also weave ponchos, sweaters, bags, hats and other articles.
The art crafts displayed are products made by Salasakas and Indigenous peoples, in order to spread our culture, increase appreciation of it, and improve living conditions.
