Cat of the Moon and Water Mexico Alebrije Mystical Cat Sculpture Oaxaca Folk Art _artisan--novica-artisan-9320 two rose flowers are craftedThe moon illuminates a mysterious blue cat, while fish and turtles swim across its body. Invoking the power of the moon and water, Zeny and Reyna transform found pieces of copal wood into an exquisite alebrije. These fanciful sculptures are a traditional folk art in Oaxaca, once based on twenty totems but today representing all kinds of animals. They take their name from a Cal gypsy word for 'something difficult, tangled, confusing or fantastic.'
