Building Beautiful Monsters in Mexico

[@tobito2013]

Meixco has the only culture I know that makes monsters and death look fun and colorful.

[@bobalinx8762]

Instead of pessimistically focusing of the loss of someone during death, they optimistically focus on the transition to a new and better afterlife.

[@warmac88]

True that!

[@ryansulak]

is there any way to find out who the writer/director is?

[@cat_boy2921]

Moments like these are what make me proud about such beautiful aspects of my culture. makes me sad how the rest of the world can’t enjoy the little things like this. Thank you for making this video, if this was anyone’s first time hearing about alebrijes I’d be glad it was through you guys :)

Editing is so well done!! Good job! 📺 ✂️ 🎨 Art is hard to film.

[@UndiaCualquierahh]

The just need to highlight that the best alebrijes are made in Oaxaca, it's a state 5 hours away from Mexico City, in the South of the country.

[@thomasedavis]

The alebrijes in Oaxaca are made of wood, whereas the original papier-mâché ones as well as the alebrijes monumentales are from Mexico City.

[@quetzylaluzdemerope2331]

In Oaxaca they made "nagual animals" Alebrije is different

[@ernestopiedrasgonzalez6131]

Los alebrijes de Oaxaca son de madera y su forma es muy realista ; los de Mexico City son mas creativos , son hechos de papel mache y por supuesto son los originales !😎

[@Senura101]

This is Great Big Story indeed 😊 This channel always make me happy and make me feel just happy about life ❤️ Tysm 😍

[@FreeTibetFTW]

Big and well deserved kudos to the narrator who had a wonderful pronunciation over Alebrije. For an instant i thought it was going to be that lady mispronouncing everything that's not an english word saying ei-leigh-brie-jey but nope, it was wonderful =)

[@felixkazteyanoz]

The true origins of Alebrijes are from Oaxaca, you can tell the difference, pure art work.

[@quetzylaluzdemerope2331]

Wrong

[@quetzylaluzdemerope2331]

Zapoteco creature is nagual not Alebrije

[@bsidethebox]

I really love this episode--topic and story are fascinating and the presentation was top notch and matched well with the subject! Def. my new favorite.

[@KCSaxe]

The cinematography and story line of the creators 👌🏻🙏🏻 thank you I love it!

[@acatssoftnose3940]

All these creatures need are people to make them into costumes, and dance with them. They could literally be what the lion dances are to China.

[@misstricksmix]

You are so talented !!

Oh those things from coco

[@rohanmisra7346]

This video confused me. Were the alebrijes a preexisting Mexican idea, or did the artist's grandfather create the concept of the alebrijes, and their depiction? If his grandfather created the creatures, then how is this 'folk art'?

[@rickyricardo2006]

I think he mentioned in spanish "modern folk art" . But i dont think they added it in the subtitles

[@thomasedavis]

Any art made by indigenous amateurs is a kind of folk art. The grandfather created and named the first alebrijes.

[@fernandad1086]

It also seems that they have an influence from nahuales that are an indigenous mith/legend

[@quetzylaluzdemerope2331]

No ahí solo reproducen a los alebrijes en madera de una forma elaborada, vi un documental y ahí mismo un artesano menciona que el origen de los alebrijes viene del artesano Pedro Linares. Los que dices son Naguales la representación del espíritu animal de la cultura zapoteca, así como el águila que está en el escudo de la bandera, que es el nagual del Dios Huitzilopochtli.
