Ocumicho Ceramics

Mexican Ocumicho pottery is often an acquired taste. At first, you might call this sculptural folk art from Michoacan somewhat weird.  It is brightly colored, executed in child-like form, but with a baudy and absurd humor about it. It is irreverent, poking fun at everything from sex and death, to religion and politics. Yet once you get it, YOU GET IT! Get it?
