Summary

These intimate, emotive sculptures have evolved from personal experience, even as they are infused with Colombian folk traditions. Zapata’s light-hearted works reveal a darker side where folk and tribal art meet Christian iconography and merge spiritual and political realities. Painted with hand-mixed pigments, roughhewn and deceptively simple, Zapata’s art is both celebratory and unflinching.
