Vision, our why

In South-America, tapestry art goes a long way back. Our ancestors expressed themselves through hand-woven tapestries depicting their beliefs, nature and important events. It was a way to communicate in a society where a written language was lacking.

As it is very time-consuming, very few young people are dedicating themselves to this art today. Surco Tapestry Art makes every effort to preserve the art of Andean tapestry in Peru. We honor our roots and our ancestors as we develop this art further connecting it to the modern world. It is our gift to humanity.
