Some might think Ra Paulette is eccentric. Others might think he’s a genius. One thing is for certain, the New Mexico man is dedicated to his craft.
A cave digger, Ra sculpts in the sandstone hills and makes people homes as well. Using only hand tools, a shovel and a wheelbarrow, Ra creates beautiful sculpted caves despite no formal artistic or architectural training.
For him, the activity is a passion and he has been doing it for 25 years. Wait until you see his work. I’ve never seen anything like it It’s truly spectacular!
An Oscar nominated documentary short (38 mins) digs deeper into Ra Paulette’s other-worldly caves.
