Oaxaca, Mexico is a vibrant city with a rich artistic history and strong Indigenous roots. The city walls and buildingsare covered in hand painted signs, printed advertisements and notices, murals and graffiti. From the inside of many ‘talleres’ print workshops, the tradition of relief printing continues; prints are wheat pasted on the city walls, printed on paper, t-shirts, bags, and stickers.
