The Story
- Matte porcelain creation inspired by traditional Aztec dances from Mexico.
- A work with an understated yet profusely enriched decoration that mirrors the solemnity of these ritual dances.
- The origins of Aztec dances go back to pre-Hispanic Mexico.
- They started off as ritual dances to worship the gods and to commune with nature.
- The dancers formed large circles and offerings were placed in the center, where they believed all energy to be concentrated.
- Aztec dances were also considered to be a ritual cleansing of body and soul and a medium to reach a higher plane of consciousness closer to man’s origins and destiny.
- The size, posture and expressive gestures of this porcelain creation entailed a highly complex process of elaboration, making it an excellent example of Lladró’s technical and decorative virtuosity.
- Taken overall, the feathers, the knee and ankle cuffs, the skirt and the breastplate have been worked with minute ornamental detail and with a meticulous use of enamels and metallic lusters.
- The decoration of the feathers called for a wide range of different tones of green and the use of airbrush solutions with newly created colors.
- Special attention was also paid to the decoration of the obsidian, a stone used in weapons and banners and believed since ancient times to possess protective powers and to ward off negativity.
- A work that conveys the power and energy of these traditional dances.
