VALADEZ

Come, the coffee has brewed Come, the foam is starting to overflow My day is pleasant, O friends The bad days will pass, come

And I do mean this

― Oscar Wilde

"There may not be, you know, as much humanity in the world as one would like to see, but there is some. There's more than one would think. In any case, if you...if you break faith with what you know...that's a betrayal of many, many, many, many people. I may know six people, but that's enough. Love has never been a popular movement and no-one's ever wanted really to be free. The world is held together, really it is, held together, by the love and the passion of a very few people. Otherwise, of course you can despair. Walk down the street of any city, any afternoon, and look around you. What you've got to remember is what you're looking at is also you. Everyone you're looking at is also you. You could be that person, you could be that monster, you could be that cop. And you have to decide in yourself not to be."

Oscar Wilde

ZENY FUENTES - ALEBRIJES DE OAXACA

Es un artesano de madera de la generación del pueblo de San Martín Tilcajete, Oaxaca. Nació en 1973 y aprendió a tallar madera cuando tenía solamente siete años con el apoyo de su papa, Epifanio Fuentes Vásquez y su abuelo, Zenen Fuentes Méndez. Ahora Zeny continúa la tradición en su taller familiar donde crea arte increíble con su esposa, Reyna Piña Ramírez y sus cuatro hijos.

Todas nuestras piezas son hechas a mano de la madera de copal.

Esta madera es tradicional de Oaxaca y es muy importante también porque la usamos para sacar incienso para uso religioso, principalmente en la festividad de día de muertos.
