Carolina Jimenez Art Twelve Grapes On New Year

Mexican-American artist Carolina Jimenez calls her woven works “monuments”—to memory, bodies, and daily life. She weaves each piece by hand from natural fibers dyed using tradition Oaxacan methods and fibers she dyes herself. The visual quality of each piece is a testament to her exploration of color, tension, and material. Each piece is named after a specific memory from Jimenez’s life, which has taken on new importance after not being able to visit her family in the last two years because of the pandemic. This small collection of pieces commissioned for our Winter Collection is available exclusively online through Heath.
