CREATIVE DIRECTOR, Earth Pigments for ONO Agency Brand Identity & Packaging

As part of ONO Agency’s CSR commitment to support local initiatives in underserved communities via collaborative partnerships and charitable funding, artist and educator Rosaura Rodríguez was commissioned to create an exclusive set of EARTH PIGMENTS as a gift for our artists and clients. We hope this project draws attention to one of the many grassroots organizations working to advance community resilience in Puerto Rico.

Rosaura Rodríguez is co-founder, coordinator, and educator at Tabonuco, an organization focused on ecological education for youth. Tabonuco offers workshops and experiential camps on creative arts, agroecology, alternative construction, and systems for sustainable living. As an artist, Rodríguez is interested in the relationships between our environment and stories, as a practice of creation and exchange of knowledge. These pigments have been found through childlike exploration and discovery, direct hand-earth contact. and honest collaborations with neighbors and people around her.
