I'm from Huaraz province and, after primary school, I moved to Lima out of necessity but also moved by desire to make something of myself. I went through some very tough times but, thanks to God and to my friends and neighbors, I was able to get through many of them.

I started helping out at a workshop where they specialized in wood and leather furniture, and I learned a lot from the artisans by asking questions and observing them — such was my desire to make something of myself. "A few years later, I started buying my own tools with a vision of opening my own workshop. I crafted trunks little by little and whenever possible, which I sold on the streets. It was difficult to start on my own without the necessary funds.

"Through it all, my desire to become a renowned artisan with my own venture sustained my enthusiasm over the years until I was finally able to set up a little workshop at home.

"I work with cedar and tornillo woods, natural leather and any accessory that I might include in my designs. I work on my own, though sometimes my son helps out me when he isn't studying.

"Inca art and colonial art inspire my own designs, and I sell my work at different shops and fairs. My main concern is that you appreciate the top-quality of my work."

In 2018, Jesus Soliz was recognized as a producing artisan by the City of Lima, and as a product developer and craft innovator Recognition by MINCETUR in 2019.

NOVICA was started with a dream to create a better world for artisans, because a better world for artisans is a better world for all.

Along the way, the founders of NOVICA discovered something very important - as artisans around the world succeeded, there was also a visible and profound impact on the communities around them.

Your purchases are that powerful. They directly and indirectly provide for education, help with health care, fund basic needs, support children, preserve disappearing arts, and of course, spread happiness around the world.

The founders of NOVICA had a vision of the future that is not one of mega factories producing cookie cutter products for all to cheaply consume. Instead, a bright future that celebrates artisans who take the time to create an item by hand. A future where time is protected, where stories are told, where unique details are honored. Love, respect, inclusiveness become driving force.
