    This monumental sculpture merges the Wixárika (Huichol) and Zapotec worldviews in a contemporary representation of Quetzalcóatl, a symbol of the balance between the three elements: water, earth, and wind. His body, completely covered with hand-applied beads, forms a mosaic that reflects the movement of the universe through symbolic patterns and green and gold colors that evoke fertility and life. The imposing and intricately detailed wings express the spiritual connection between the earthly and celestial realms. Each bead embodies a prayer, an act of communion between tradition and visionary Mexican art.
