Description

Tiburcio is an indigenous ceramic artist based in the city of Santa Cruz, Bolivia. He was born in Urubichá, a picturesque Amazonian village home to the Guarayo people, which is known for its rich artisanal and musical traditions.

Nature is the main source of inspiration for his art. Most of his pieces portray very colourful birds and plants native to his area. He spends a lot of time observing animals and nature, which he  then recreates through his art from memory and his imagination. He also sometimes depicts scenes of everyday of the Guarayo people in an effort to preserve their tradition.
