Wall Decoration TONATIUH

Tonatiuh, a design inspired by the symbolic embodiment of the Toltec deity of the Sun of Movement. In Nahuatl, Tonatiuh means "he who warms or illuminates."

The cotton loom features a symmetrical division into quadrants by a cross, portraying the representation of Tonatiuh. From its center, four diagonal rays of light, created with tassels and ties, emerge—symbolizing the sun's journey across the sky from east to west. The lower section of the "canvas" concludes with a series of trimmed strands of varying lengths, adding a unique touch to this artistic creation.
