The Chiapanecan handicrafts resemble the joy of life and the pursuit of beauty. Some of this handcrafted products are symbols in Chiapas, such as the lacquer (laca), which is believed by the Chiapanecan people to own the strength of a unifying symbol, or the textiles, which symbolism is beyond the need of wearing clothes.
Our artists are humble people from different indigenous groups that know how to preserve the love that the ancestors uttered to colors, harmony andforms.
The traditional art is one of our most well-known and admired types of art expression.
