Papel-picado
This intrcate paper cutting was created by artist Catalina Delgado-Trunk, a premiere artisan of papel-picado—the Mexican art of paper cutting. A native of Mexico, she learned to draw in Orlando by taking community college classes after immigrating to America. The themes of her art include traditional Mexican and Meso-American subjects. Delgado-Truck was a master in the Florida Folklife Apprenticeship Program during the mid-1990s. The Madonna shown here is from 1996. (Collection of the Museum of Florida History)
