A SENSORY EXPERIENCE
When José Joaco weaves his horizontal loom, he seems to be dancing. You need complex and fluid hand-foot coordination and care and dedication that don't let any distraction interrupt. It is evident that they have been in a relationship since he was a child. If you add to this the delight of the smell released by the virgin wool that immediately sends you back to the mountains, seeing knitting and knitting: it becomes a pleasant experience.
