Tucson designer Cindy Cook-Keller renews hand-woven textiles from West Africa, Amazonian Peru, Guatemala, Indonesia, and Thailand to create one-of-a-kind wearable art pieces and home decor. Her unique approach to salvaging these amazing but often undervalued textiles brings them into focus and highlights the techniques, color, and designs that makes them such treasures. Cindy's philosophy is to encourage the curious collector to rescue the fiber pieces that may be languishing in a dark trunk somewhere: "Bring them to life again by creating a new garment or accessory for all to see!"
