Symbolism & Inspiration (Front)
1. God of Storms
Tlaloc was one of the most important and feared deities in the Aztec pantheon, as he held power over the water that sustained all life...
He was loved as the great provider of his people but feared even more. For if he were angered, Tlaloc would bring on storms, or even the opposite... droughts.
2. Terrifying Power
Tlaloc is adorned with an eagle-shaped headdress, a symbol of great strength and authority; as well as a nod to the god of war, Huitzilopochtli.
3. Battle-hardened
I wanted the cracks throughout the piece to symbolize inner strength. Time, battles, and legendary feats may have worn the god down, but never broke him.
Symbolism (Rear)
1. Great Temple
Sculpted on the rear is one of the great temples, like Huēyi Teōcalli in Tenochtitlan (modern-day Mexico City); in which the Tlaloc might have been worshipped.
Gods weren't the only ones capable of great feats. This temple is a testament to the strength and ingenuity of man.
2. Source of Power
I sculpted a vague relief of the sun directly behind the temple. The sun is the source of all life and power, placed there so the wearer can feel like they have access to that source whenever they need it; just flip the pendant around as a reminder when you need it!
