In Latin American mythology, it is said that the Andean condor rules the heavens. These majestic creatures are considered messengers between the earth and the sky, sometimes even between the living and the dead.
Revered for their immense power, they are believed to possess the strength to lift and carry the sun into the sky every day.
I have created a woven condor who, like these mythic beings, carries within it the light of day. Volando, alumbrando el cielo y la tierra.Â
