Hi, we are Pete and Della Storr and we are promoting the beautiful work of Maximo Laura in the UK. In 2009, Della had the opportunity to visit Peru on a textile tour with Puchka Peru. During the tour, Della met Maximo Laura and participated in a tapestry workshop lead by him. Having admired Maximo’s work on his web site, Della was still stunned when seeing his work for real: his artistry, designs and colours, the colour blending and texture. Have a look at our Gallery and let us know what appeals to you.
