Spoons! Farmer and shepherd art

Shepherds and farmers all over the world decorate the objects that surround them with symbols, such as a spoon

Shepherds and farmers all over the world decorate with drawings, some of the most utility objects, such as spoons or recipients. Early techniques that still survive today, especially in places where traditional culture is more alive. A symbolic and creative universe that has important similarities and shows us shepherd art as a farmer with a universal vocation. "Spoons" will take us to Pallars and the Sahel.
