Higüera. 2022. 6x6. Signed original work.
Vejigante Mask was carefully sculpted, carved and painted by Alli Arocho, in Salt Lake City, Utah
Made of polymer clay - meticulously decorated acrylic paint, and mounted onto a custom wooden frame.
It is the higüera that can become a maraca for bomba, and this instrument is one of the most obvious connections of our Taíno roots in bomba. The maraca is the most important instrument in bomba, as it informs and holds the time of the music, coordinating the entire community of people who participate in a bomba.
