Today, Dina works with her family in her workshop and a group of artisans
working under her supervision. She has won recognition and respect. Her
ceramics have been part of art expositions throughout the years. “I combine
my own designs with the traditional ones which come from the ancient time of
the Incas. I want to express my art in different ways. Therefore I produce
various ceramics, such as vases, nativity scenes, chess sets and other artistic
pieces”.
“Internet
is a wonderful tool”. Dina gets excited when she talks about the
possibilities that technology could give to her art. An on-line market defies
the traditional barriers of time and space that are a traditional limitation to
the artisans. “I want to expand my market and to get closer to the customer.
Selling my products to the world is a very important opportunity”. The smile
of Dina’s face expresses her optimism in the future while her talented hands
mold the shapeless ceramic to produce beautiful pottery.
