Indigena was designed by Guisela Mendoza and published by Latinotype. Indigena contains 1 style.
Mapuche means ‘man of the land’ and it is also the name of a group of indigenous inhabitants in South America.
During the southern Winter solstice, between June 21 and June 24, the We Tripantu, the Mapuche New Year fest, takes place with a magical rite in the middle of the nature.
Indigena is a dingbat font that remakes the artistic expression of the Mapuche people in Chile, recovering the handmade stroke they used in textiles and ceramics, but with a fresh look.
This dingbat is based on pre-Columbian iconographic drawings shown in the book Dibujos IndÃgenas de Chile (1929) by chilean art teacher Abel Gutiérrez.
