As if coming from the strangest collection, from the bag of an explorer or from the sketch of an archaeologist, those oversized puppets come to life for our greatest pleasure.
These entirely dreamed up amulets have crossed the ages, adapting themselves to all generations, therefore combining traditions and modernity.
Inspired by the traditional celebrations of the American continent, these mysterious dolls are the interpretation of several myths. They defy our most primitive superstitions, with music and dance, to arouse curiosity and amazement.
