As the sun nears the horizon, a llama tucks long legs under its body and prepares to sleep. Mountains cast long shadows across the countryside and the air is crisp with wood smoke. Alejandro osores depicts the peaceful images on a pair of mate gourds, transformed into percussion instruments. Seeds inside make a cheerful noise when they are shaken. Selecting the dry gourds according to their shape, osores carves the motifs with a burin. The dark shades are achieved with smoke "baths" and the piece receives a protective coat of varnish. Because each unique piece is hand-crafted from natural gourds, please expect slight variations in shape, size and motifs. |
