May Howard (@reddsroom) visits the Houston studio of Dominique Muñoz (@domo23), speaking together on textiles inherited from loved ones, experimenting with cyanotypes, and what it means to weave an image.

"In Muñoz’s compositions, vibrant geometric fragments derived from traditional Guatemalan textiles form slick fields of color. He understands the power of constructing an image, and employs weaving practices to destroy, cut, and alter structures and patterns. To weave an image is to break the frame, allowing for boundaries of image, representation, self, and home to move and be redefined." Read more from the studio visit at the link in bio. — 1, 3.
