Ancestras | Permanencia: Marcelina Mendoza Castro

In Capultitlán, State of Mexico, lives a woman who has dedicated much of her life to sharing her knowledge. Amidst threads, natural dyes, and skills passed down from hand to hand, this episode reflects on what endures through time and across generations. In a world where almost everything seems designed to be short-lived, Marcelina perseveres by slowly embroidering. In the second season of Ancestras, embroidery serves as the pretext: the cross-stitch in each episode is rooted in words, language, territory, networks, and the living heritage of Indigenous women in Mexico. #textileart #traditionaltextiles #ministryofculture #culturaldevelopment #ancestors #ancestorschannel22 #indigenouspeoples #mastercraftswomen #channel22 #the22 #thechannelofmexicancultures #original #capultitlán #marcelinamendozacastro #weaving Check out our programming: www.canal22.org.mx X: @Canal22 | https://x.com/Canal22 Facebook: Canal 22 México |   / canal22mexico   Instagram: canal22oficial |   / canal22oficial
