Mexican textile artist Victoria Villasana’s embroidery on pictures of iconic figures. Frida Kahlo ♀️️‍

This is my oil painting of Tonalco Tlaltecuhtli, the Earth during the dry season.

Tlaltecuhtli is the Earth Lord and the Earth Lady. She is the Earth itself; Her elbows, breasts, and belly are mountains, Her navel, the hollow of Her throat, the folds that wrap across Her stomach are valleys, and Her mouth and womb caves, entrances by which to enter her body. She is all abundance and all life, but likewise, She is the tomb who shall swallow us all in the end. We do not have four seasons in Mesoamerica, but rather two, Xopan or rainy season, and Tonalco or dry season. As Tonalco Tlaltecuhtli, Her body is painted yellow, to represent the yellow grass of Winter. She is dry, tired, and lacks the energy for growth and life.

I’ll be explaining more details about this painting in other posts!

Tlaltecuhtli will be on display at my upcoming show at Art Bug Gallery in LA! You can also find Her as a print in my Etsy store! Click here!

Ometeotl, Dual Divinity, is Lord and Lady of Existence. They are composed of Ometecuhtli, Dual Lord, and Omecihuatl, Dual Lady, and Their spirit dwells within all creatures. This is why everything that exists contains a feminine and a masculine part, cold and warm, nocturnal and diurnal, wet and dry. Ometeotl is an entity so complex that They can only be represented metaphorically in the shape of a turquoise board.

My original painting of Ometeotl is on display at the Art Bug Gallery. Saturday is the last day to visit my show!
