These Peruvian artists believe that having art, customs, and folklore is necessary to have a sense of identity in a community. What are your thoughts on the art made here?

Absolutely in sync

Had no idea potato and probably plaster would make a good clay material. The amount of details and patience put into these pieces is just too amazing. Although originally the 'retablos' are made for religious purposes, I feel that this form of art is also capable of delivering various other local themes. Hope this form of art is passed down through generations to come, keeping their culture intact. Great video by the way. Thanks for sharing National Geographic.

@@t-.-t. Cooked potatoes and flour mixed. If the consistency is to thick you can ad a little water. You can also make air-dry clay out of corn-starch. Check you tube for recipies. Enjoy!

visit Ayacucho and support these amazing artists, not only Cusco or Lima, Peru has so many treasures, the most important: its people

Love from India. This city and its roads, street and houses more attractive. One day I will go to this place.

I am also a craftsperson and when he says that he feels free from the weight of the world when he works, I know that feeling as well. You're "in the zone" and your brains & hands are able to let the creativity out. It's comforting to know that it feels this way for others who create.

Truly skilled craftspeople, preserving their history and cultural traditions through art.

@@NatGeo your team is doing a great job sir. Thank you for bringing up such a hidden talents among the peoples of all over the world. These artists deserves recognition.

Exemplary craftsman; .Creative men with big ideas capture on his works; each one project has a history behind. Recognized for gaining many contests. I visited his workshop it was beautiful; his design is based on the concept of the altarpiece. I recommend that you should visit his workshop if you go to Ayacucho - Peru

I'm from the United States and Peru fascinates me.

I love watching crafts peoples in the creating process. Fascinating and beautiful results!

Amazing creations made by amazing craftsmen. So beautiful

Great job! Greetings from the top of the World ! Hail! Nepal !!!

I love growing up with Nat Geo it's amazing and so knowledgeable

😍😍😍 I'm jealous with his craftsmanship .,

Hermoso video y la creación de unas manos humildes pero grandes en su expresión. Gracias por compartir.

Lovely Life.. masterclass craftsmanship! Hatsoff for making such a wonderful film!

Great Video. The kind of Tranquil Life desired by many I'm sure. It looks so peaceful and quiet. Worship has always been in our nature, although religion is a touch subject. Quite crafty and talented to shape the clay into such an impressively detailed face. Interesting religious fact about the Spanish, I didn't know that. Cultural value is priceless, a blessing indeed growing up so close to that. I think many cultures have facts and traditions slowly waning away through technological evolution. This Culture so beautifully Captured and Illustrated by this Talented Artist. The detail is astonishing, and serve as confirmation of really intense concentration. Thanks for sharing such valuable and interesting information.

This is beautiful. Thank you for creating something like this.

Peru's culture ! Hope this keep going.

Such detail, down to the fingernails. A sign of a true artist.

Impressive to say the least!

Your opinion does not matter for you have an anime profile picture.

Uma mensagem reflexiva e uma arte inquietante...as mãos o instrumento da imaginação...O colonialismo, a revolução e a influência da religião que foi imposta....a sensibilidade faz parte da vida e da arte. porque representa a realidade....Não me surpreende a luta do homem moderno abominar as manualidades??!! Se eu espremer o sumo de laranjas à mão não uso máquina, poupo energia, evito barulho e mantenho os músculos e sim uso ambas as mãos ...isto para dizer que o silêncio é de ouro neste vídeo retratado e as técnicas simples com figuras originais e com histórias vividas, os estudos preparatórios.!! Um vídeo que é simples genuino e uma lufada de ar fresco!! Será a arte a manifestação que dela se obtém? !

Makes it look almost effortless. Muscle memory.

Hermoso!

This is simply amazing and I would love to have these.. I had no clue potato could be used in this way..

Very Interesting

I can only say awesome handicraft n peoples.

That's impressive😮

బంగాళదుంప తో super గా చేశారు 👏👏👏

que arte !! que retablos

Wow.

perfect & talented❤😍

nice!!

Que material é esse?? Achei maravilhoso !!!!!

@natalia_jaira6381

Oi, esse material é gesso com batata. Son modeladas y pintadas a mano, el estilo que ves en el vídeo empezó a hacerse desde 1940, pero tiene una tradición colonial basada en los retablo portátiles que usaba la iglesía católica para evangelizar y que pasó a las fiestas de marcado de ganado. En el Perú donde más se desarrolla este tipo de arte es en Ayacucho, en los Andes peruanos.

nice

These are beautiful! There is so much culture in Latin American countries👍

Anyone notice blue 🏢 building 3:03 Why other are in same colour ?

Good

Where can I find these?? They're beautiful!!

Beautiful. Please visit Ghurni in Krishnanagar in West Bengal, India. You will be amazed I guarantee.

Pour potato into a pattern is fun😊🥔He practices his craft every day⚡️I hope to maintain his rights. The doll was so realistic that I couldn't take my eyes off it.

🇵🇪

I want to learn....Please teach me

Ohh! Esta en español.

los artesanos hacen arte sano

esos retablos son de museos !! .

At 7:40, when the artist states that by creating these figurines, they become representative of him being free or devoid of stress, etc. I think that the thought was incorrectly translated in the subtitling. Check your editing...

here in the philippines we also have retablos but only depicts the birth of christ. It has the 3 kings,joseph,mary,baby jesus and some farm animals
