The Embroidery Flower Heart From Ocosingo.
- The practice of embroidery is a very ancient practice dating from the pre-Hispanic era. Through this technique, artisans make an impression of their reality, using elements that surround them as flowers, birds, and landscapes. The artisans embroider this flower with pedal machines, just like they've been doing it for centuries.
- Unfortunately, these ancestral techniques have been replicated with machines, removing the human element, in such a way that their production is greater in a shorter time. Naturally, this has repercussions for the original producers, and creators of these crafts, because it is impossible to compete with the prices generated by cheap production.
