Since 1992, the community of Tañarandy, in San Ignacio, has turned Good Friday into an experience of art and faith created by the artist Koki Ruiz, who died in 2024 and whose daughters now carry on his work. The Virgin of Sorrows is carried in procession along the Yvága Rape (“path to heaven” in Guarani), some 2 km lit by around 20,000 candles, torches and oil lamps, to La Barraca, where living tableaux recreate scenes of the Passion inspired by classical paintings.
