GARAC — ‘I gift you’
Artesanos Don Bosco presents the exhibition, GARAC, a Quechua word meaning ‘I Gift You.’ It is also an acronym of the Quechua words for the materials used by the artisans to create their work, each of them gifts of the earth:
Guero = wood, Away=textile, Rumi =stone, Actzy = glass, Cori = metal
GARAC reflects the significance of our work in South America and represents the message we would like to give to the people:
Art through Charity.
This exhibition is combined with the works of Argentinian artist, Adriana Carambia, whose encounter with non-conventional materials inspire her to transform her ideas into works of art.
