Descripció

Ullets

Built by Robert Bertolín and Xavier Duch

Ullets was born in 2016 so the children in the Sant Jaume giant group could carry and dance with their own little giant. He was made by members of the group and based on Guenyo, one of the three big-headed figures also made by the group in 2011. They called him Ullets because the most striking feature of his face is his bulging eyes (ulls). Ullets represents a little carter, one of those that moved the Sant Jaume Apòstol church stone by stone in 1823, when it was relocated to Carrer de Ferran, due to the expansion of the city hall and Plaça de Sant Jaume.
