"There's nothing I enjoy more than working in clay to create... archaeological replicas of objects the ancients used in celebrations and religious rites. It's an incredible feeling!"
Handcrafted of ceramic, a stark black monkey puts its hands up to its head. Peruvian artisan Ynocencio Ccahuana uses ceramic to handcraft this sculpture, which is a replica of an actual artifact found at a dig site of the ancient Chavin. The art of the pre-Hispanic Chavin is characterized by monochromatic color schemes and anthropomorphic figures.
