Artwork details
E.Cuellar was inspired by “the Chibcha Mythology of Creation where the first age of the world, before there was nothing, Fihizca, breath of the Universe, creates Chiminigaghoa, and Bagüe, and in the second age called, Sas Quyhynuca, "before everything" in Tomsa, navel, Chiminigagua is born from them.
