Episode Recorded May 4, 2021.

Porfirio Gutiérrez is a Zapotec textile artist specializing in natural dyes. He uses insects, plants and fruits to create dye for the textiles he creates in his studios in California and Oaxaca. He grew up in a family where the knowledge of medicinal plants and textile/dyeing crafts were part of his life, and Porfirio’s journey of re-discovering his passion of honoring the tradition, knowledge and ancestral heritage of his craft is an important part of his work. He is interested in sharing his own personal expression that is informed by his Zapotec cultural heritage to create something built upon a solid foundation.

To find more of Porfirio’s work visit his website www.porfiriogutierrez.com, and Instagram @porfirio_gutierrez_studio or find him in Ventura, California in the Bell Arts Factory.

Porfirio’s craft crushes: His parents, and Aboubakar Fofana.
