A stone sculpture inspired by Nahuatl cosmology and the sacred origin of maize. The work centers on the wind conch, symbol of Ehecatl, the aspect of Quetzalcóatl associated with wind, the divine breath that animates life and makes sustenance possible.
In this piece, maize is honored as humanity’s supreme gift. According to ancestral tradition, Quetzalcóatl opened the sacred caves with his breath, allowing the first grains of maize to emerge and nourish humankind. The Ehecacozcatl thus becomes an emblem of divine power, transformation, and generosity, uniting the spiritual and the material in a single form.
