Born in Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic, Milagros draws inspiration from the rich tapestry of her childhood—ocean waves, bustling markets, and the aroma of coffee and sugarcane. Growing up during a challenging political era, Milagros found strength in her family and guidance in the form of Doña Maria Luisa, a Freedom Fighter and Master Knitter. This mentorship became the foundation of her journey into the world of fiber arts, knitting, crochet, and social justice.Early Influence and MentorshipAt seven, Milagros' meeting with Doña Maria Luisa marked the beginning of a transformative journey. Hindered by financial constraints, Milagros proposed a unique arrangement—she'd work for knitting lessons. Doña Maria Luisa, a fearless advocate against dictatorship, not only agreed but ignited in Milagros a passion for social change. Doña Maria Luisa's passing didn't halt Milagros' growth; instead, she became part of a collective of women mentors, guiding her until her family moved to New York. The vibrant culture of NYC, coupled with the influence of the "Black is Beautiful" movement, shaped Milagros' perspective, fueling her commitment to equity, sustainability, and gender neutrality.The Batista Collections: Brand BioMilagros Batista - Designing for Equity, Sustainability, and Gender NeutralityA decade ago, Milagros transitioned careers to dedicate herself entirely to knitting and crochet.
