Details

As the sun assumes the body of a condor, it sheds light on a collection of Inca glyphs. Transformed into a mask, the image is one of spiritual mystery. Alberto Aparicio Canchari handcrafts this mask from ceramic, which he then fires in a wood-powered kiln. Once the mask has cooled, Aparicio paints the geometric stylizations that are unique to the Inca.
