Curled up into a ball, a charming cat uses its paws to cover its eyes, ears, and mouth, embodying the maxim "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil." Bali's Nengah Sudarsana works with local artisans to hand-carve the sculpture from local suar wood, painting it with colors of grey and white.

This jewel-toned area rug will liven up any space in your home. Juan Contreras hand weaves it on a traditional Zapotec loom using wool to create a geometric diamond pattern in taupe and deep red.

Juan proudly continues with the art of weaving that he learned from his parents as a young man. He is involved in every step of the process — from shearing the sheep to dyeing the wool and weaving it into original designs.

Angel Cerón finds inspiration in the art and beliefs of the Olmeca people to replicate the sculpture of a jaguar holding a man standing on his head. "The original sculpture is from the middle pre-classic period of 1200-400 B.C. and was found in San Lorenzo Tenochtitlán, Veracruz," explains the master ceramist. "The ancient Olmeca believed they were descendants of the union between a jaguar and a woman. The actual myth seems to have been lost in time, though many of their celebrations and artistry make reference to the jaguar, especially portraying people with feline facial characteristics including fangs. There used to be a considerable jaguar population in the same region where the Olmeca culture developed, so they regarded the feline as having some connection with their origin. They also believed it to represent both the world of th living, and the underworld," continues Cerón, who crafts the sculpture with yellow clay from the state of Oaxaca creating low and high relief accents and gives it an antiqued finish.
