My Story

The Huexkido Studio was established by Araceli Moreno, a Hñähñu and Wixárika woman. Araceli created the studio in order to continue learning and educating about Indigenous customs and traditions. Through cultural practices of weaving, that have been around pre-colonial times, and various forms of textile knowledge, Araceli hopes to connect with other textile artists to create meaningful collaborations.

Araceli mainly focuses on weaving using a traditional backstrap loom with Hñähñu and Wixárika iconography. However, Araceli also uses embroidery, tapestry, crochet, and a floor loom to create various projects and designs.

The Huexkido Studio is currently located in her home, and hopes to have a central location where she can showcase her pieces and provide workshops in the near future.
