Cateura, Paraguay: Ada signs up for violin lessons, but there’s a shortage of instruments. So the teacher uses the town’s landfill to transform oil drums into chelos, water pipes into flautas, and packing crates into guitarras. Author’s note. Resources for further information. Sources. Full-color illustrations were created from a hybrid technique of collage, acrylic glazes and paints, drawings, and digital mediums, then executed on stipple paper.
