We will collectively carry out the traditional construction of a cebatu, which will form part of the Rodrigo Cuevas exhibition.
A cebatu is a framework of hazel sticks, which has traditionally been used for different purposes, such as partitions, floors or enclosures.
Under the supervision of Macario Iglesias, a bio-construction craftsman and architect specialising in traditional constructions, we will build 3 pieces measuring 2.50 x 2 metres that will form part of the Rodrigo Cuevas exhibition, which will open in May.
