She is one of the few people on Mallorca devoted to the local sheep wool recovery.
She is running her beautiful project MU textile art where she offers unique local wool yarns, hand spun and naturally dyed.
Eugenia works close to the local shepherds, selects, cleans and turns wool into felt objects as well.

About
HOW THEY WORK is a nonprofit project that aims to bring together creative artists from all over the Balearic Islands.
The website seeks to present some rare, behind-the-scenes insights into the life and work of local artists and artisans at their studios. In order to capture the unique character of their work, we provided different photographers for each participant of the project. We hope this website will serve as a useful guide for anyone interested in discovering and supporting their work.
We strongly believe in local communities as a source of health, creativity and support. Nowadays they seem especially important against the selfish individualism and wasteful consumerism that contribute to the destruction of our planet. We wish this website to be the beginning of many beautiful relationships and creative connections.
This project has been founded by Accidente con Flores studio.
It would not be possible without the help of our dear friends:
Maciek Goldsztejn - web development
Nuria @isla_et_nomade - social media, and team support
Thank you very much!
