Continuando la tradición" / "Continuing with the tradition"

Details

This piece is about the Mexican tradition of gathering the family to arrange the "ofrenda".

In Mexico there is the believe that in the "day of the death" -November 2-, our loved ones who aren't with us any more, come to visit us in this date, the tradition is to have a place (a table) specially served for them, with their photo, some saints, candles, "pan de muerto - (bread of the death-specially made in Mexico for this festivity) and the food they love to eat when they were alive.
