HUEHUE - Joyful Tradition

Huehue Mask animation.

The Huehue is an example of the Talaxcaltec traditions. The word is originated in the Nahuatl language and means “elder”.

They are part of the Tlaxcala Carnival, a joyful satirical party.

The wooden masks are single artisanal pieces that try to imitate European facial features; white, clear eyed people with long eyelashes and a beard. The masks vary according to region and type of character, some have moving eyelashes.
