Casanare in Colombia’s eastern region is rugged, wild, and runs as far as the eye can see. It is filled with animals who are farmed and far more who roam free. The roosters, oxen, pigs and more are the work of a talented local artists led by a woman named Martha, who saw recycled paper, newsprint and egg cartons as a way to feed her children. Her work is so highly prized she has since been able to send her children to Bogotá to study. Using opposition newspapers and printed poetry from her region, she sculpts her works with an amazing mix of anatomical accuracy and artistry. Carolina Jaramillo finishes them with fabulous chaquira or beaded designs.
