This piece brought me back to the streets and narrow alleys of Mexico. Beautiful handwoven blankets were used to pack their pots to prevent them from being broken on the way to the markets.
The pots were created from the famous black clay mined in the state of Oaxaca. Every form was developed and supported by the architectural folds of the handwoven blanket.
