Omar Châvez Santiago(a.k.a. Omar Chasan, b.1993)is a fourth- generation weaver from Teotitlán del Valle, Oaxaca, whose work bridges ancestral weaving traditions with contemporary design. In 2011 he established his studio, OCS - Limited Handwoven Pieces and Objects, as a space for research and experimentation with natural dyes, fibers, and unconventional forms. Chasan's pieces often transcend the rectangle, embracing organic shapes and intuitive processes that reflect his daily life, surroundings, and heritage.
