"This volume celebrates the artistry and culture of the six leading ceramists - all of whom are women, four of whom are sisters.".
"Though their work is informed by a shared sense of culture, place, and identity as women, each artist has her own unique style, source of inspiration, and approach to her craft. Daily life and flights of fancy, spiritual devotion and earthly concerns all find expression in these finely crafted and beautifully colored ceramic marvels, including street scenes and nativities, Virgins and Zapotec creatures, vases, plates, candleholders, and figures of Frida Kahlo."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Details
First Sentence
"Ocotlan de Morelos, the home of the Aguilar sisters, is in many ways a typical rural Oaxacan town, with the unlikely distinction of being one of the few communities in Oaxaca not studied by the hordes of anthropologists who have descended upon the valley."
