Takto Artist Katrin Schikora Exhibits at MACAY

SECRET GARDEN is the title of visual artist Katrin Schikora’s recently opened show at the Museum of Contemporary Art, MACAY, which will be open until the end of June. In this exhibition, Katrin shows the artistic outcome of her experimentation with the low temperature salt firing technique. The result is a unique hanging garden installation and a number of beautiful wall pieces which impress with their organic compositions and subtle designs. An information sheet available at the entrance of Katrin’s exhibition explains this complicated technique in pictures.

For those who want to see more of Katrin’s and her partner George Samuelson’s work, you can visit their gallery and workshops in Cholul, just outside Mérida. The TAKTO art and design studios are worth a visit for anyone looking for a special piece of art or design pieces for their home: TAKTO sells metal and ceramic sculpture, ceramic murals, art objects, and a great range of ceramic wall and table lights for indoor and outdoor use.

(Just follow the avenue which goes past Plaza Altabrisa toward the north, cross the Periférico and keep going straight – in 5 minutes you’re in Cholul. From the main plaza, just follow the signs “TAKTO –Art and Design Studios”.)
