Iluikatl & Ostoteotl The upper and underworld , 2022
Collage of natural objects and painting.

These paintings represent the upper and underworld. They allow
you to enter the multidimensional world – opening your senses
to multidimensions and layers – connecting through relationality.

These paintings are about the connection between the Material
and Immaterial, the Reality and Spirituality, and diverse
Indigenous worldviews.

In Nahua cosmology, the upperworld exists – Iluikatl = cielo and
it is for our spirits and ancestors who guide us and take care of
us. The real world we live in, Mother Earth = Tonantsintlalli –
Madre Tierra; and the underworld = Ostoteotl – inframundo,
the place of the dead, where we seed or plant our deceased people
= Titokatij. The place of the dead is Miktlampa. All these dimen-
sions are connected in this world, and they live in the same Place
and space.
