The Lord formed a man with the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living soul.
Clay and water, mixture of elements of the earth itself blended by the hand of man.
It goes from generation to generation, from hand to hand, the print of those who paved the way still alive till our days.
Ceramic, the heartbeat of human time.
Talavera, a mysterious word, as mysterious is, that men insist in obtaining from earth glazed and painted objects, that their sound when striking two of them sound like bells, and attracts our attention for their beauty.
Earthenware: tibores, vases, decorative pieces and tiles that we know as Talavera of Puebla are; beyond doubt, one of the most important themes of traditional art in my country.
Talavera pottery is an art, historically linked to certain spaces like the kitchen, churches, convents, facades, and interiors of houses.
As well as the workshops where it is born, after repeating centenary rituals by its artisans.
This art that is essential as sculpture, has also an internal space; that of imaginary, represented over its surface; this spaces conform a world where reality and fantasy communicate, where the hands that create, buy and sell ,combine with the hands that paint the forms of their dreams into an object.
