3.4 Héroe cultural / Cultural hero
Se realizaron una serie de procesiones, donde el monumento del director es llevado en hombros con música patronal y el olor a incienso, mezclando lo cultural con lo religioso. En todas las procesiones siempre está el director delante de su estatua, muchas veces casi invisible para el público, quienes se acoplaban ingenuamente, pero eran atraídos por un monumento a venerar, por la representación de él y no por él.
A series of processions were held, where the director’s monument was carried on shoulders accompanied by folk music and the scent of incense, blending cultural and religious elements. In all the procession, the director is always at the front of his statue, often almost invisible to the public, who naively joined in but were drawn to venerate the monument, to the representation of him rather than him himself.
