JULY 2023
This capsule was born from a moment experienced in July 2023, during a natural dyeing workshop with a family from the Boruca community. It was an experience that, beyond learning, felt like a pause to observe, listen, and connect.
I remember a brief conversation with Doña Marina, simple but enough to remind me that true value lies in the natural, in the everyday, in what we are without artifice. That moment, that morning, became a starting point.
From there, this collaboration emerged, built with respect and deep admiration for the Boruca artisan women. Their work reflects a history sustained by effort, a culture that is nurtured, and a community that continues to defend its land, its traditions, and its way of life.
For Boruca women, weaving is an act of devotion and respect for their ancestors. A spiritual path that honors the flow of life through their culture. Each stitch expresses a labor of love that connects their community with nature—starting with the origin of natural dyes + fabrics, which will last as long as the raw materials from which they are obtained. Each woven piece exists to celebrate the natural rhythms of life. By intertwining threads and colors, each textile commemorates the close connection between the tribe and Mother Earth.
