Community Project
Taller con productoras de miel – San Isidro Llano Grande
It has focused on improving products made by the Rio Grande beekeepers cooperative. Based on collaborative work strategies, they have jointly developed labels to expand the sale of honey and information to consumers, as well as migrate from plastic containers to glass, as it is a recyclable and more sustainable material.
Sal del manglar – Comunidades de Llano Grande, Agua Zarca y La Pastoría
In the community of Pastoría, the Spanish artist Fernando García Dory worked with a group that is retaking salt production from the salt of the lagoon water, a traditional activity that disappeared in the 60s, with the arrival of the Road to town. Due to the constant floods, the way to decant salt with cavities dug in the ground, requires a very laborious work of constant reconstruction every season, which endangers the continuity of the project.
That is why the artist designs and produces a series of ceramic vessels inspired by the earthenware so present in Oaxacan cuisine, decorated with texts and figures of the mangrove flora and fauna. With a system based on recycled tires, the “portable saline” floats on the possible floods, allowing salt production not to be lost, and continuing to provide an economic resource to the families of Pastoría.
