In this work the optical fiber is woven with the loom and tools of the Traditional Andean textile. The colors that circulate through it, are like the color strips of the Andean fabrics, the same that remain transmitters of information of the origin of who wore it. Reminding us that light and color are the best and fastest information transmitters.
Light colors the optical fiber, as dyes do with natural fibers.
