Thank you Juliana González-B for bringing me a copy of Las Carretas Decoradas en el Estilo Sarchí all the way from Costa Rica.
I borrowed, and translated, a copy from Daniel Esteve Carbonell while working on the piece about this decorative artform for BLAG 05 (https://bl.ag/05), so I'm now very happy to own my own.
You can learn more in the BLAG 05 article, and via the bonus content online at https://bl.ag/the-blag-05-digital-companion/.

Tiébélé village in Burkina Faso, home to the Kassena people. The Tiébélé royal residence is made up of clay houses hand-painted in different geometric patterns using clay paints. The patterns are an indicator of royal staus within the community. Another difference is the huts’ door sizes. The chief has the house with the smallest door, for his protection.
