Janio Núñez is a unique sculptor who works with tobacco leaves from Vuelta Abajo, Cuba. He creates solid sculptures without molds, starting from any point on the leaf. His first piece was the head of the Indian for Coiba cigars. He has since created many figures for his Fumadores Célebres collection, including Che Guevara and Charlie Chaplin. Janio also made a real-size sculpture of Churchill and is now working on a new project called Fundamentos de la Humanidad.
