Video Title:
Nature by Design: Cochineal | Fernando Laposse
Description:
For Fernando Lapossse, locality and historical context take center stage in every object he designs. Here, he explores the rise and fall of two important Mexican commodities—cochineal and sisal by recovering the beauty and utilitarian qualities of each material. This video was made with funding from the Smithsonian Latino Initiatives Pool, administered by the Smithsonian Latino Center.
