"In 2016 through an artist residency with Dieu Donné, I began experimenting with handmade paper-making, developing a way of layering pigmented paper pulp with various patterned and textured fabrics and then sculpting the surface with water and stencils. Utilizing these techniques, I created the Latinx Farmworkers in the US Tapestries Series." - Lina Puerta
