Incorporating traditional processes, Jimenez’s drawings are reimagined by Indigenous artisans to bring boomboxes, once obsolete objects, back into the cultural zeitgeist by utilizing an enduring material from the earth: clay. “Making ceramics has become a cliché with very tired designs, and I thought that if there are groups of indigenous women who are very marginalized in their circles of poverty, why not change their way of creation by introducing new content in which they can continue making their pots and jars, but daring to do this crazy thing, like a kind of virtuous circle in which they follow tradition but at the same time innovate.”
