About the artwork
%u201CPachamama%u201D is a goddess revered by the Indigenous peoples of the Andes. In Inca mythology she is the %u201CEarth Mother%u201D, a fertility goddess who presides over planting and harvesting, embodies the mountains, and causes earthquakes. She is also an ever-present and independent deity who has her own creative power to sustain life on Earth. Multiple Pachamamas, holding jugs full of amniotic fluid, generate creatures, habitats and cultures that are only apparently divided. Every evolution process is the result of coexistence, hybridization and relationship. No identity is static, isolated and permanent. Accepting differences, being permeable, defusing hierarchies and power relations, preferring care, become an alternative to superficiality, emptiness, war.
