Artisan Info: In his traditional weaving town, the name Yurivilca inch shines brightly, yet it is the name don Cesar Yurivilca that truly resonates - the result of the man's inimitable success in the art of textiles. Don Cesar is currently somewhat of an institution in a town that has made its name on tapestry weaving. This prestige is garnered not only through the success of his tapestries but also because Don Cesar is a pioneer in the field, choosing to take a different path from the traditional techniques and inventing the tapiz relleno. All of the local weavers now follow Don Cesar's technique because they are able to achieve a visual impact with their weavings similar to that which a painter would be able to create with his canvas. The influence comes from my family and from my town as well.
