Description: The town of El Carmen de Viboral (Department of Antioquia) is the ceramics capital of Colombia. The ceramic pieces manufactured there are unique to the world. The iconography of El Carmen de Viboral is an important artistic heritage, authentic and its own, because it has been able to collect, in more than a century, the ornamental and decorative spirit of a place, because it brings together in its ceramics artisanal habits, expressions of the mountainous rural landscape, love for flora and an identification with bright and vivid colors. Carmen, ceramics and iconography allow us to approach the history, art and design of Carmelitan ceramics so that we can help keep it alive.
