Story Behind the Art:

Don Cesar Yurivilca is a pioneer in the field, choosing to take a different path and inventing the tapiz relleno. Local weavers now follow his technique to achieve a visual impact similar to that which a painter creates on canvas. 'All of my weaves contain traditional aspects of my town and Peruvian culture in general. I use sheep's wool and cotton, natural as well as industrial dyes. My primary tool is the loom, and the process consists of applying the relleno technique, to ensure a compact and precise product. During my career I have received many awards and prizes, including the designation of Grand Master, but nothing satisfies me more than the love I receive from my fellow countrymen.'
