Making Culture by Hand: Irvin Trujillo

By Alan Govenar

Making Culture by Hand travels to places, rural, suburban and urban, where tradition and innovation merge in the work of individuals, like Irvin Trujillo, who dedicated their lives to making crafts that are are deeply personal, but are nonetheless committed to the enduring values of their families and community.

"Irvin preserves tradition while taking it forward, pushing boundaries by filling space in new ways, with fresh patterns and ideas." (Lynn Cline, New Mexico Magazine)

Irvin Trujillo received the National Heritage Fellowship, awarded annually by the National Endowment for the Arts to recognize individuals who have mastered different culturally defined art forms. His story is told in first-person narrative, illustrated by intimate photographs that open his studio doors and allow you a glimpse into his world and craft.
