¡Hola, espero la estés pasando muy bien!
Hi, I hope you are having a great time!

Estoy muy feliz porque terminé de diseñar a estos coloridos diablitos (jaja). Por cierto, estaba planeando tejer su amigurumi ¿qué les parece?.

Este personaje tiene un significado importante para mí. Mas allá de representar mi cultura, crecí escuchando músicas de Sayas, Tuntunas y Caporales...(incluido La Diablada y Morenada)..quizá de allí tuve una inclinación hacia las danzas típicas.

I'm very happy because I finished designing these colourful little devils (haha). By the way, I was planning to knit their amigurumi, what do you think?

This character has an important meaning for me. Beyond representing my culture, I grew up listening to the music of Sayas, Tuntunas and Caporales...(including La Diablada and Morenada)...maybe from there I had an inclination towards the typical dances.

Origen de La Diablada / Origin of La Diablada

Puno, capital folklórica del Perú tiene más de 300 variedades de danzas típicas, siendo una de ellas La Diablada.

Este tema es controversial. Recuerdo de niña escuchar también a Los Kjarkas (Agrupación Boliviana) quienes en sus canciones mencionaban mucho a una tal "negrita" y yo me preguntaba ¿en Puno hay negritas?.

Los cierto es que el origen de esta danza aún sigue perdido en el pasado. Se sabe que se impulsó desde las violentas peleas que hubo entre los "Vicuñas y Vascongados". Si bien el libro del cual me estoy basando no habla de esto, menciona varios pueblos de Puno y que los habitantes del Barrio Mañazo lo presentan en la "Fiesta de la Candelaria" junto a la Morenada.

Puno, the folkloric capital of Peru has more than 300 varieties of typical dances, one of them being La Diablada.

This is a controversial issue. I remember as a child listening to Los Kjarkas (Bolivian group) who in their songs often mentioned a certain "negrita" and I used to ask myself, "Are there negritas in Puno?.

The truth is that the origin of this dance is still lost in the past. It is known that it was promoted from the violent fights that took place between the "Vicuñas and Vascongados". Although the book on which I am basing myself does not talk about this, it mentions several villages in Puno and that the inhabitants of the Barrio Mañazo present it in the "Fiesta de la Candelaria" together with the Morenada.

La máscara / The mask

Si se trata de encontrar los orígenes culturales es decir "la razón de ser", trato encontrar versiones donde no esté influenciado con la religión católica, porque se sabe que estas alteraron la historia. En este caso defiendo la teoría donde dice que la máscara de la Diablada fue inspirada en el Dios de la cultura Mochica "Ai apaec", a quien los Moche le temían porque no querían ser desgarrados vivos. Con el tiempo, le añadieron más adornos (ornamentos),grandes cuernos, colores...similar a los Dragones chinos.

If it is a question of finding the cultural origins, that is to say "the reason for being", I try to find versions where it is not influenced by the Catholic religion, because it is known that these altered the history. In this case I defend the theory that the Diablada mask was inspired by the Mochica god "Ai apaec", whom the Moche feared because they did not want to be torn alive. With time, they added more adornments (ornaments), big horns, colours... similar to the Chinese Dragons.

Con toda esta información tocó analizar y plasmarlo en un amigurumi, para esto seleccioné los detalles característicos del personaje y le agregué variantes de combinaciones de colores para que parezca una fiesta.

With all this information it was time to analyse and translate it into an amigurumi, for this I selected the characteristic details of the character and added variants of colour combinations to make it look like a party.

I love to read about the historical and mythical background of your creation. And I can understand your search for roots - behind the Christian period - because Christianity changed so much in many countries. Often it is tough to find older layers of cultural remains like dances, images, stories as they are transformed so much through the Christian lens.
Your keyholders are so detailed with the horns and the big teeth and I love the high contrast colours you used. Both transport the historical background so well (now I have to research the dances you mentioned)
Thank you for sharing this <3

Hi, in Peru we have many dances. Even in schools and universities there are folkloric dance competitions. On the other hand in America or "The New World" we know little of our ancestors, we still need to dust off that link, that real connection with their people. Keep up the good vibes!.

Muchas gracias. Estaba entre llavero o monedero. Los ojos son tejidos, al inicio no supe cómo lograr esa forma y justo eso es una de las características principales de este personaje. ¡Buenas vibras!.

Muchas gracias. De niña me escondía de los danzantes con máscaras y todavía tenían un látigo en la mano, jaja. Por eso esta versión tenía que emitir algo distinto a lo común. ¡Que sigan las buenas vibras!.

Thank you very much. The challenge of this design was to weave something small as a representative of Peru. It was somewhere between the alpaca and the Diablada. Good vibes!.
