Walter García Hernández

Walter García Hernández, hailing from the vibrant and culturally rich Oaxaca City, is an artist whose work is as enchanting as it is meaningful. His series of native animal prints created for Del Suelo is more than just a visual feast; it’s a narrative of Mexico’s folklore and its intrinsic connection with mezcal production.

Each animal bears a significance to the nature and culture of the state of Oaxaca. Beyond his artistic endeavours, Walter is a passionate advocate for environmental conservation.

Walter sees his art as a tool for raising awareness about the importance of preserving Mexico’s rich biodiversity. He is a storyteller, an environmentalist, and a guardian of his culture’s visual and narrative heritage.
