Aitor Saraiba
Aitor Saraiba lives and works in a stone cabin in the valleys of Cantabria, northern Spain. He has been working in drawing, textile art, and ceramics for two decades. His work has been exhibited all over the world, from Los Angeles to Tokyo, including Portugal, Italy, the United Kingdom, Africa, and several cities in Spain.
Aitor Saraiba’s textile work explores different traditional techniques, bringing them into his own unique world. He has revived traditional wool-working processes with his flock of sheep in the mountains where he lives, uses natural dyes with silver, and employs all manner of darning and mending techniques to create stunning, unique artworks.
In 2022, the newspaper El Pais awarded him the ICON Artisan of the Year prize for his work in textiles and ceramics. He has also collaborated with numerous museums across Europe and beyond.
In Embroider, Mend and Sew, Aitor explores his textile process, wherein personal history and creativity intertwine.
