Rafaela Baroni

The following photo collection is dedicated to my aunt Rafaela Baroni. Rafaela is an artist living and working in Venezuela. She has received several awards and has international acclaim for her work.

Rafaela spends her days doing workshops for kids in her community, tending to her guests and small zoo , and sometimes fortune telling. Some come to her for healing too, for they beleive that she has the power to perform miracles. She is the oldest of my aunts and is quite charismatic and lively.

In the next few days I will continue posting photos from our trip to Venezuela this summer. Please feel free to email me your questions or comments.
