About the Item

La Urna Urn by Acoocooro Dimensions: ø 27 x H 35 cm. Materials: Stackable urns and vessels (3) and tray (1) produced in turned white cedar wood; natural gourd ("guaje"); maque and lacquer carving; gold leaf; oil painting. One of a kind. LA URNA - Maestros de Olinalá Guillermo Guerrero, Marcelina Navarrete, Valencia Coronel, Julio César Guerrero, Damián Coronel Commemoration, ceremony, and veneration the ancestral are acts of a deeply personal, familial nature. Far removed from production and economics, they bring meaning and function to specific objects, actions, and times. Celebrations like Día de Muertos, for instance, happen far away from the public sphere: they take place in intimate settings where only family members and close friends take part. Appreciation for these traditions, however, is on the rise. Lacquers, gourds, chests, and vessels made in Olinalá, Guerrero are valued for their history, aesthetics, and technique, but also for the endless possibilities they offer for commemoration, celebration, and memory. La Urna and la Urna Azul, crafted by the Masters of Olinalá, showcase each of their techniques. It can contain relics and objects, or none at all: its true meaning lies in the rituals it is adopted for, in its emotional contents, and the Masters’ art itself. Founded in 2017 by Martín Diego Salido-Orcillo and Antonio Mendoza Bravo, ACOOCOORO is a furniture, lighting and artifacts studio, a lab, focused on aesthetic and historic research, on objects' narrative and emotional relation with individuals and space. Every object, every piece, more than a product in a collection, is the result of exploration and experimentation through materials, processes and artisanal work. These elements fill every one of them with history, stories and memories: those of the individuals that conceive and create them, and those of the people that live their lives through and with them. Silent Design, finally, is a guiding principle in ACOOCOORO's practice, whenever the collaboration with artisan groups is involved, with a complex yet clear goal: the establishment of non-extractive, cooperative, self-sufficient relations, where craftsmanship, economic benefit, authorship, property, and narrative are reclaimed by and rebalanaced in favor of the artisans themselves, and not the designers.
