About this item: Known as Aztecs, the Mexica people practiced ritual sacrifice. Death cult priests, dagger in hand, assisted the victims in their supernatural transformation into both god and governor who were transported to a space and time where all is calm and the cosmos is in perfect order. Drawing on a lifelong study of Mexico's pre-Hispanic cultures, Angel Cerón creates a mask of his own design to represent this concept. - Features an aged antique finish - Hand-crafted item -- color, size and/or motif may vary slightly - Intended as wall decor - May present subtle cracks - Signed by the artist About our Artist: Angel Ceron comes from a family with generations of artisan experience. He learned the family ceramic techniques from his father, Antonio Ceron Orta, a renowned artisan. Angel began a long study of Mexico's pre-Hispanic cultures and learned the Nahuatl language spoken in ancient Mesoamerica. He uses clay from northern Oaxaca state, the only clay of this kind in Mexico and perhaps in the world. The unique characteristics of this yellow clay make it ideal for his work.
