Alebrijes Carver Painting Wooden Jaguar in Guadalajara Hall

by Anne Noble

High-altitude afternoon light streams through tall windows, illuminating dust motes in the humid air that lingers after rain. A carver sits before a large wooden jaguar, his hands steady as he applies vibrant blue and orange paint to the carved wood. The prayer hall features rough plaster walls and simple wooden beams overhead, creating a quiet workspace. Colorful alebrijes materials rest on a nearby table, while the jaguar's fierce eyes catch the crisp light. The carver wears a worn shirt, and his shadow stretches across the floor. A drop of fresh paint rests on the edge of a brush resting on the workbench.
