Entre Diablos y Guarichas patrones acerca de la diablada de Píllaro

Abstract

Ecuador is a country privileged for its multicultural, multiethnic and multiracial richness, according to the Mexican anthropologist Francisco Lizcano Fernández 51% of the population belongs to a defined indigenous or racial ethnic group, for this reason in the country there is an intangible cultural heritage of great wealth. This research aims to rediscover indigenous heritage taking an ancestral tradition such as ¨diablada de Píllaro¨, held in Tungurahua-Ecuador since colonial times as a rejection of Catholic practices imposed by the Spanish, where they express themselves through: popular characters, traditions, dances full of colors and masks; with all these symbolic elements reinterpret it graphically through illustrations and compose patterns that capture the essence of this celebration, taking it to a current context using the chromatic boho, ethnic and vintage, which show the identity and heritage, turning this celebration into an element tangible that identifies us and conserve in a perennial way the traditions of this town.
