Calaverita celebrates diversity through traditional Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) iconography and masterful textile art. Its creators embroider technical excellence with a wink of social irony. “We are Chiachio & Giannone, an artist who has two heads and four hands,” say Leo Chiachio and Daniel Giannone of their partnership in life and art. “Our academic knowledge is in painting but since 2003, when we met . . . , we began to change the brushes, oils and acrylics for the needles, threads and scissors.” Together they are blurring the lines between artist and artisan, fine art and craftsmanship. Pride comes in all colours, textures, cultures and forms; delight in the hand-stitched complexities as you assemble this 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle from Pomegranate.

Chiachio & Giannone
Chiachio & Giannone are Leo Chiachio and Daniel Giannone. Both Argentinian, they live and work together in Buenos Aires. Originally trained in painting, they moved into hand embroidery where they use a dazzling array of colour and stitches as they redefine the traditional family portrait into a riot of colour and technique. Epic in scale, their work incorporates elements of magical realism and a sense of humour. They simultaneously reflect the changes in society while demonstrating an encyclopaedic knowledge of stitch.
