According to legend, the Maya princess Ixmucane received a gift from the sun god, making her able to resolve any person’s problem. Later, people began creating dolls with whom they’d share their problems. They’ve become very popular. My grandparents said that the way to use them was to take the doll out of the bag or wooden box and tell it your problems and fears. Then, you place the doll under your pillow and, the next day, your problem becomes smaller or can be resolved. This work has unified us as a family. It has given us group goals to meet and the opportunity to exhibit our work. We feel there are people around the world who value them and this makes us very happy. ‘
