** Hecho a Mano Podcast. Episode 9.
The Transformation and Generosity of the
Popova Tree:
Julio Laja Chichicaxtle
------------------------------------------------------------
Our ninth and final episode of this series, Hecho a Mano ([link removed]) (Handmade) podcast, is now available, marking the successful launch of the first Cultural Survival podcast! This month, the artist Julio Laja Chichicaxtle (Otomí) joins us to share the story of papel amate of the “Popova” tree in the Ñühü language. He tells us about the inspiration and the materials behind his works of art.
Along with his business partner and wife, Cirila Trejo Gonzales, Julio and his family of artists put their hearts and souls into their work. Their art has a rich history and is deeply connected to the local community and the nature that surrounds them. The papel amate is made from tree bark harvested by community members who transport the materials to the artists. Julio says that healers were the first to work with the tree bark, making it into small sheets as a way to wrap and store the medicines they prescribed to heal community members. Both the inspiration and materials for Julio’s creations are gathered from the natural environment and transformed into true works of art.
This podcast Hecho a Mano ([link removed]) is an offering from our Bazaar Program to highlight artists sharing wisdom from their Indigenous traditions. The Bazaar Program is a key component of Cultural Survival’s Indigenous rights model, not only supporting creativity as a way of life and communing with the natural world, or for cultural continuity, but also because selling art and crafts is the second-highest source of income generation for Indigenous communities worldwide.
***Note: We have missed the in-person Bazaars and will soon announce the dates for the July 2022 Bazaar season. We hope to be together soon, safely, and in celebration of Indigenous art. Until then, please consider supporting and buying directly from our Bazaar artists by visiting our directory of artists at bazaar.cs.org

¡Ya está disponible nuestro noveno y último episodio de esta serie, Hecho a Mano ([link removed]) marcando el exitoso lanzamiento del primer podcast de Cultural Survival! Este mes, el artista Otomí Julio Laja Chichicaxtle se une a nosotros para compartir la historia de Papel Amate del árbol “Popova” en el idioma Ñühü. Tanto la inspiración como los materiales para las creaciones de sus obras de arte.
Junto con su socia comercial y esposa, Cirila Trejo Gonzales, Julio y su familia de artistas pusieron su corazón y alma en su trabajo. Su arte tiene una rica historia y está profundamente conectada con la comunidad local y la naturaleza que los rodea. El papel amate está hecho de corteza de árbol cosechada por miembros de la comunidad que transportan los materiales a los artistas. Julio dice que los curanderos fueron los primeros en trabajar con la corteza de los árboles, convirtiéndola en pequeñas láminas como una forma de envolver y almacenar las medicinas que recetaban para curar a los miembros de la comunidad. Tanto la inspiración como los materiales de las creaciones de Julio se extraen del entorno natural y se transforman en verdaderas obras de arte.
Únase con nosotros en este hermoso podcast donde Julio Laja nos comparte sobre el proceso de Papel Amate, en donde cuenta una rica historia profundamente conectado con su comunidad y con la naturaleza. Puede escuchar, descargar y compartir de forma gratuita.
El podcast "Hecho a Mano ([link removed]) " es una oferta de nuestro programa del Bazar para destacar a los artistas que comparten la sabiduría de sus tradiciones Indígenas. El programa del Bazar es un componente clave del modelo de derechos Indígenas de Cultural Survival, no solo apoyando la creatividad como una forma de vida en comunión con el mundo natural y para la continuidad cultural, sino también porque la venta de arte y artesanías es la segunda fuente más alta de generación de ingresos para las comunidades Indígenas.
***Nota: Luego de una temporada de pausa, estaremos anunciando las fechas para el bazar de julio de 2022. Esperamos estar juntos pronto, de manera segura para celebrar el arte Indígena. Hasta entonces, considere apoyar y comprar directamente a nuestros artistas de Bazar visitando nuestro directorio de artistas en bazaar.cs.org ([link removed])
