The concept was to mimic the popular Puerto Rican Wooden Saints with a geometric approach. Wooden Saints are small painted wooden sculptures carved to resemble religious icons, patrons and legends of popular Catholicism. These Santos are an important folk tradition in Puerto Rico, and considered a priceless artform. In their original context, Wooden Saints were understood to be intermediaries between earth and heaven.
