Pachamama by Gabriela Otero, Wood, Unique, 197cm high by 45cm wide by 50cm deep, Body, Female, Figurative, Nude sculpture
Here is Gabriela’s story on this sculpture:
Every August 1st, Mother Earth receives the homage and gratitude of her children in a heartfelt offering for the livelihoods received throughout the year.
The celebration of Pachamama has a mystical connection with the origin of the universe and human beings. Mother Earth assumes, according to this ancestral belief, the energy of the cosmos, the universe, time and space. The name of Pacha derives from this energy source and it is through this link that there is a deep respect for its integrity.
