Yasmin Mora is a self-taught textile artist and designer, deeply connected to her Chicana heritage and the materials that shape her work. As the founder of Umaguma Studio, she blends traditional Mexican materials with contemporary tufting techniques, using naturally dyed wool and sustainable fabrics. Her work is raw, tactile, and immersive—balancing precision with intuition, tradition with innovation. Each piece is a living composition, a soft terrain of color, form, and feeling. She expands on ancestral practices while pushing the boundaries of contemporary design, creating textiles that invite connection, reflection, and sensory experience. Rooted in transformation, her practice explores how textiles can hold history, emotion, and the power to heal.
