The Artist Tiburcio Soteno

"An extremely talented artist with an unusual imagination, Tiburcio Soteno was invited to London in 1992 to give workshops at the Museum of Man (the ethnographic department of the British Museum).  This visit coincided with the exhibition The Skeleton at the Banquet: The Day of the Dead in Mexico. (1991-1995). A number of samples of his work were included in the exhibition and sparked much admiration.  Other pieces by him can be found in Italy, France, Germany, and Spain."

"At the turn of the 20th Century trees of life were small primitive pieces but through the work of Modesta Fernández , Tiburcio Soteno’s mother, the trees were revolutionized in to what the have become today – huge colorful sculptures that can tell any story."
