Elpido lives with his family in the small village of San Pablito, Puebla, Mexico. Continuing the tradition of Otomi embroidery, Elpidio, his wife Cristina, and others in their community participate in the generations-old craft of hand-embroidered textiles. Together they embroider flora and fauna reflecting essential elements of their Otomi ancestral culture. Elpido and Cristina support their daughter's dream to pursue a healthcare career through their handiwork.
