Blue Cat Greeting Mexican Alebrije Cat Sculpture

Zeny and Reyna

(334)

Wearing bright red lipstick, a whimsical blue cat lifts her tail in greeting. Zeny and Reyna transform found pieces of copal wood into a delightful alebrije. These fanciful sculptures are a traditional folk art in Oaxaca, once based on twenty totems but today representing all kinds of animals. They take their name from a Calo gypsy word for "something difficult, tangled, confusing or fantastic."

Because each alebrije is individually created work of folk art, shapes will vary slightly. Small parts are separated for shipping to protect from breakage.

Blue Cat on a Bench Handcrafted Wood Alebrije Sculpture from Mexico (2 pieces)

Zapotec Dream Family Workshop

(15)

A playful little cat has taken over a bench in this unique sculpture from the Zapotec Dream Family Workshop in Mexico. Crafted in the style of alebrijes, a folk art style traditional to Oaxaca, the cat and bench are carved from copal wood and painted in vibrant colours.

The folk art of alebrijes dates back to an old tale from Mexico City. In his fevered dreams, a man called Pedro Linares saw an endless number of curious and fantastic creatures. Inspired by that incredible vision, Pedro recreated those magical beings with papier mache, naming them after the word those creatures shouted in his dreams: "alebrije! alebrije!"
