An acrylic painting of a chicken drumstick dripping with mole negro as the head of a woman in traditional dress from Huautla de Jiménez, a man with a quesillo head with a striped shirt, orange-yellow pants and huaraches, and a woman in traditional blouse and skirt from el Istmo de Tehuantepec with a corn cob with its husk open as a head. In the bottom left corner, there is a grasshopper—a traditional Oaxacan snack—eaten toasted and with lime and chile—above the signature.
Somos Oaxaqueños. Sin la Comida Oaxaqueña, nos Moriríamos./We are Oaxacans. Without Oaxacan food, We Would Die, acrylic on handmade paper. If you know Oaxaqueños, you know what I’m talking about.
