11. Livlihood: Restoring a lost Art in El Salvador
Barro Negro—literally “black clay”—is a dying Mesoamerican Lenca craft tradition rooted in the town of Guatajiagua, Morazán, in eastern El Salvador. This exquisite artisanal practice, one of only two of its kind in the Americas, is mostly carried out by elderly women. It involves a long, labor-intensive process using special organic materials sourced locally and handed down through generations. The primary reason this craft is disappearing is the lack of economic incentives for younger generations of Lenca artisans in Guatajiagua.
The Rescuing Guatajiagua’s Barro Negro Tradition Project aims to preserve and sustain this Lenca heritage by:
- Teaching the craft to younger generations.
- Providing artisans with fair economic opportunities, ensuring they are the main beneficiaries.
This project has the potential to transform Guatajiagua’s historic challenges of unemployment and migration
