La Calaca

This Spanish-language Chicano poem, "Desesperación" is a terribly haunting image of the dangers that we face, that are inside of us. published by Calacapress,a family-owned publishing house in San Diego that "strives to bring about change through the literary arts." Here's a work on "Calacas" by Christina Cardenas who adds to the skeleton the tradition of praying. And Alejandro Corpeño Dubón re-interprests the "Calaca" with these wonderful digital works.

Hello Adán. I found your Blog while searching for some webpages with my name on them. I was surprised to see a reference to las CALACAS 3D render I made some years ago. Now I have another website dedicated to ART, it's called HondurasArt.com I invite you to visit the site where you will find a lot of Honduras Culture artistic expressions (and some calacas too).
