Accompanied by lovely birds, renowned Mexican artist Frida Kahlo is surrounded by purple flowers against a blue backdrop. This stunning and cultural piece of ceramic wall art is created by Maria Isabel Cruz, who works using the dry rope technique, in which a wax mixture made of magnesium oxide and fat are applied to the outlines of the image or motif prior to glazing. The wax mixture creates a barrier that keeps the different fill colors in the design separate during firing, before burning off to reveal the blackened ceramic beneath. A length of nylon cord on the back provides for easy hanging.
