A course by Silvia Peligro
Silvia Peligro, a self-taught graphic designer and embroiderer specializing in miniature pieces, studied Design and Visual Communication at UNAM, a period during which she discovered the work of Maricor/Maricar and was amazed by the way they mix the graphic world with the textile world. She started learning embroidery in 2010 and over time specialized in miniature work because of the precision it requires and how portable it is.
Currently, she is completely focused on her brand, which includes not only embroidered pieces, but also accessories and tools. She also gives workshops for people interested in learning the technique.
She has collaborated with important brands in the textile world such as Coats and Gütermann, and her work has been published by Kena and Glamour magazines.
