The design: EXVOTO
The Latin root of"ex-voto" literally means "according to the vow."
An ex-voto is an object placed in a venerated place, such as a church, as an offering to a god following a request for grace or in thanks for an answered prayer or grace received.
Ex-votos come in several forms: sacred heart, hand of Mary, dove, eye, and also boats in fishing regions such as the Basque Country...
In Mexican culture, the tradition of the ex-voto whether offered as a gift or simply used as decoration, is always deeply meaningful.
They are made of embossed metal and hand-painted in vivid colors.
I chose to depict an ex-voto that It resonates with the rhythms of our turbulent world, just as its vivid colors are there to tease your retina.
I feel deeply connected to the hummingbird fable, which I am trying here to transcend into a wish that tomorrow everyone will do their part.
