Dwell Magazine: Crossing the Line / A Space by Tanya Aguiñiga
I recently had the amazing opportunity to interview furniture designer/textile-maven Tanya Aguiñiga about her new exhibition at L.A.'s Craft and Folk Art Museum for Dwell.com. Inspired by her recent trip to the indigenous region of Chiapas, Mexico where she learned the ancient method of back-strap weaving, Tanya created a site-specific installation of brightly-colored crisscrossing strings that envelopes the viewer in a space woven together by traditions old and new.
