Our favorite folk art items are always those of artisans commenting on current events in the world around them. This delightful one-of-a-kind ceramic tableau shows the traditional devils of Ocumicho in a medical scene dealing with the COVID pandemic. A true collector's piece.
Did you notice the mini skulls floating around with the COVID viruses attached to them?
A true one of a kind piece by the renowned artisan Adelaida Pasqual, winner of many prizes for her work.
The pieces are crafted from locally collected clays then fired in a pit kiln before being meticulously painted. This style of pottery is found nowhere else in Mexico.
