Inrirí :: Carpintero de Boríken :: Puerto Rican Woodpecker
There was a time men had lost their connection to women. they looked for a bird called inrirí, formerly called inrirí cahubabayael - sacred name representing wisdom as i have interpreted - seeking out help from the bird it was able to find the solution for what was no longer available.
The inrirí is shown here with a symbolic eye petroglyph for its wisdom and sight. it’s ability to carve out solutions.
Adaption of the taíno story is taken from from the writings of fray ramon pane
collection: el pajáro por dentro
medium: acrylic on clay pottery
The vase was sourced directly from Mexico, via San Diego, and hand-treated with sealant to house your favorite plant babies and withstand periodic watering; as well as , a final glaze to protect the hand painted artwork.
It works great for a unique gift for nature lovers, birders, and other enthusiasts in love with what nature gifts us everyday. Although the pots give a reference to the Mexican artisan cup, jarritos, they are not designed to drink from, and should only be used for decorative purposes.
About the Puerto Rican Woodpecker
A medium-sized woodpecker that frequently forms small flocks and can be found in most wooded habitats. No other species in its range sports its glossy dark blue back and rosy front. Drums softly, calls loudly, often belying its presence. Most commonly gives an emphatic “Pik!” which is often repeated, sometimes in a rapidly accelerating series. When flying it flaps its wings several times, pauses, and then flaps again giving it a distinctive undulating, wavy flight pattern. Its call is a loud grouping of "Wicka" notes (source: ebird.org and USDA)
