Presently, countless family-focused workshops in Capula passionately create these figurines. Each artisan adds their signature touch, ensuring every Catrina is unique. The revival of this art form dates back to the 1970s when Juan Torres brought to life Posada’s character in clay—a vision subsequently immortalized by Diego Rivera.
