A Handmade Present: Weaving Opportunities at the Museo Textil de Oaxaca
Hector Manuel Meneses Lozano
Friday, May 16, 2025
The Museo Textil de Oaxaca (MTO) is a space that houses memories, success stories and challenges. An initiative encouraged and supported by the Alfredo Harp Helú Oaxaca Foundation since 2007, the MTO is committed to research, conservation and exhibition of the textile collections it safeguards. With the same level of commitment, the Museum encourages an open dialogue with the communities that have given rise to the textiles in these collections. The social force of the MTO springs forth from empathy and it has grown by weaving together an intimate network with weavers, embroiderers, dyers, spinners and producers of raw materials, such as fibres and dyestuffs. Modern industry has made us seek disposable clothing and mass consumption, but in response, the Museo Textil de Oaxaca is focused on appreciating and promoting the manual and intellectual effort involved in handmade textiles. This conversation will showcase a series of cases in which the MTO has been able to link its collections with contemporary creative communities, not only to better understand our past, but also to reimagine our present and reformulate our future.
