– Casa WAbi 2019

Community Project

Gráfica Tropica/Mural – Locatarios del Mercado Benito Juárez de Puerto Escondido, alumnos de Escuela Normal de Río Grande y alumnos de Escuela Primaria Melchor Ocampo de Zapotalxito
Within surrounding Casa Wabi communities, I decided to give Graphics workshops, which would address the graphic medium with daily and practical applications in a simple way for experimentation in the community and consequently, its continuity.
As a result, (in the case of the market) there was great enthusiasm among the girls who carried out the workshop. Also, in the school in Rio Grande, the normalistas expressed their interest in using the workshop in their future teaching practice, implementing new means, such as the elaboration of clay matrices, material of daily use in the coastal communities
