Adriana Lucrecia Lumbi Solorzano
Adriana Lucrecia Lumbi Solorzano was born
in San Juan de Oriente, Nicaragua in January of 1980, the third
of four girls. From a very early age she was the only sibling
that accompanied her father to fairs and events selling his pottery.
At the age of 12 she began decorating her own vases, which were
of the rustic style. In 1996 she began specializing in geometric
designs on her pottery, and was the first woman working in these
types of designs.
Today she works with her husband. Both
are dedicated to perfecting the geometric design work and coming
up with new and unique designs in that realm. For this young
artisan, mother of two children, Lia Teresa, eight year old and
Armando Aldair, 3 year old, one of her dreams has been to be
able to one day exhibit her pieces in the US.
