Alberta was so kind to let me take the photo as a muse for this mural. This charming mayan lady is an outstanding hat maker and an example of how Mayan culture is being supported by the local government. All fair trade and handmade at the Bazar Artesanal.

Thanks go out to Angelica Guerrero and her partner, Ministers of culture and economics for your support on the adventure. Delio Carrillo, Gabriel Escalante and the governor Victoria Damas de Aysa.
Also a big shout out to the locals muralist crew Murale arte Campeche and Aztrobio for the warm welcome.

De Laat started painting murals and canvases, often based on his own photographs of the people he met during his travels. He exaggerates the natural lines in their faces, and fills the spaces that appear between those swirling lines with swaths of vivid color. The linework and color palette he applies in that way, are a means of translating his memories of Latin America to visual imagery. The food, the architecture, the clothes, and particularly his respect for the culture of indigenous peoples; it’s all in there, as de Laat transitions it over to enliven drab Western concrete.
