Based in Morelia, with deep roots in Paracho, Michoacán, Jose Alberto Madrigal Virgen develops an artisanal practice that weaves together family tradition, memory, and play. As a wood turner, toy maker, and miniaturist, his work is defined by technical precision and a constant drive to innovate within the world of traditional wooden toys.

His pieces—ranging from finely crafted toys to intricate miniatures—not only evoke childhood and popular games, but also offer new ways of engaging with this legacy, keeping alive a craft that has shaped generations in his family.
