Summary
The exhibition presents 29 works of expressionist style, carved in wood (a technique learned in his childhood), with representations of animals a great symbolism within pre-Hispanic cultures, such as the snake and the jaguar, and vegetables with the same symbolic meaning. Several representations of the Tlalocan, the Pre-Columbian after-life paradise ruled by Tlaloc that represents happiness. The exhibition includes a monumental sculpture called "No Dos", where the author seeks to reconcile two symbolic imaginaries showing their correspondences: Buddhism and the Mexican Pre-Hispanic world.
