Master artisan Abel Salazar, together with Lolita Mart\u00ednez and Gerardo Carrillo, created outstanding works of traditional carpet art at Davies Symphony Hall and the Consulate of Mexico. Their creations introduce the public to a tradition from Tlaxcala that brings together knowledge, precision, and a craft passed down through generations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Creating these carpets requires patience and coordination. Each figure is carefully formed, with attention to outlines, the placement of colors, and the overall composition. The result reveals both the beauty of the designs and the work of those who devote their time and expertise to keeping this cultural expression alive.<\/span><\/p>\n

The carpets will remain at both venues beginning today and through the November celebrations, thanks to the collaboration of Tlaxcala\u2019s Secretariat of Tourism\u2014SECTUR\u2014and Escartiz Studios. Their presence offers an opportunity to learn about Tlaxcala\u2019s art and recognize its creators as part of the Day of the Dead celebrations.<\/span><\/p>\n

For Veronica Esc\u00e1mez, executive director of Casa Circulo Cultural<\/a>, the artists\u2019 presence offers an opportunity to share Tlaxcala\u2019s traditions with families throughout the region. \u201cSeeing a carpet up close allows us to appreciate its details and understand the care that goes into its creation. Its ephemeral nature gives it a special meaning: it is a work created to accompany a celebration for a limited time, but the encounter with this art and the tradition it represents can remain in our memory.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Following the work presented in San Francisco, anticipation is growing for the carpet the artists will create at Courthouse Square in downtown Redwood City for the Day of the Dead celebration on November 8. With this year\u2019s celebration dedicated to the state of Tlaxcala, their participation will introduce the public to one of its most representative artistic expressions.<\/span><\/p>\n

The upcoming installation in Redwood City will be part of the Day of the Dead program organized by Casa C\u00edrculo Cultural. The public can discover this tradition on November 8 at Courthouse Square during a day dedicated to the culture of Tlaxcala.<\/span><\/p>\n
