Mexico Interdisciplinary Studio: Oax-i-fornia
Information Session with Raul Cabra

This course explores the opportunities and implications of collaborative work with local craftspeople and artisans in a cultural context rich in tradition and history, providing an opportunity for a carefully crafted cultural immersion.

Personal work and formal experimentation are necessarily informed by an interaction with local history, arts, and culture.
