Abstract

Two Peruvian artists from Lima have managed to overcome the emotional difficulties during the recent 2-year pandemic, due to the specific characteristics of their plastic proposal linked to the intimacy of the decorative and artistic handcrafts. Through their life-stories, the factors in their creative processes that have promoted their resilience are analyzed. The effectiveness of decorative textile crafts in achieving emotional balance, even for non-professionals artists, is also proposed.
