The Colorful World of Alebrijes: Origins, Creation, and Artistry

DESCRIPTION

Alebrijes are vibrant, fantastical creatures first created by Pedro Linares in the 1930s in Mexico. After falling ill, Linares experienced vivid hallucinations, inspiring him to carve whimsical animals out of wood, which became known as alebrijes. This unique art form spread to Oaxaca, where artisans honed the craft further. Watch a colorful parade featuring alebrijes [here](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXn0VE66Vm), and learn how to create your own alebrije in this [tutorial](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fHsGRmP3Zw).
