Santuci Transportation Figurines & Sculptures

A small purple school bus clatters down the roads of rural Guatemala. Usually crowded, it carries people and products going to market. Sometimes known as chicken buses, these old-fashioned vehicles inspire Guatemalan ceramicist Vitelio Orozco's diminutive two-inch bus in ceramic, hand-painted in bright colours. A bright palm leaf basket on the roof is filled with a variety of ceramic and pinewood fruits and vegetables.
