«AMARU»

Amaru, which means snake in Quichua, is a divinity in Andean cosmology who was associated with wisdom in the Incan era. Amaru allows for and symbolises the dialogue between the earth and the sky, believing in its ability to transgress the limits of the spiritual reign in the underworld. Amaru is a powerful animal, shown here with a woman looking through its eye, in a powerful and protective union.
