Tribus Mixes: Cheetah Woodcarving
This gorgeous feline alebrije by the Tribus Mixes workshop is absolutely breathtaking. Tall, sleek, and elegant, it captures the spirit of a wild cat itting proudly with an alert, almost regal expression.
What makes it so captivating is the color work: vibrant yellows and fiery reds that seem to glow, set off by electric blues that pop across the body. Every inch is covered in detailed patterns—spirals, lines, and geometric designs—that give the impression of movement and energy flowing through the piece. The long tail and slender legs accentuate its elegance, while the hand-painted face, with its golden tones and soulful eyes, radiates strength and serenity.
It’s a striking example of how Mixe artisans combine bold imagination with meticulous craftsmanship, transforming wood into a piece that feels alive.
