Jahir Trujillo – Opening Reception

The renowned painter, who hails from the isthmus of Tehuantepec, Oaxaca, Mexico, paints only with pigments of animal, vegetables and minerals, and using such ancient, and highly-sought after Cochineal, or Blood of Cactus, and other natural dyes, he develops artistic pieces on handmade paper with e-Hispanic or primitive techniques.
An opening reception for Jahir Trujillo’s paintings is planned for 7 to 9 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 29, at Studio 8, at 8th Avenue and 8th Street in Huntington.
These events are free with sponsorship from Online Learning and Libraries, MU Students Affairs and Marshall’s Department of Modern Languages. The event was organized by the Department of Modern Languages and the College of Arts and Media
