QUETZALCOATL (2015 - Present)

This is an ever-growing collection which we began in 2015 based on research of the Aztec plumed serpent god Quetzalcoatl. Extraordinary myths and novels have been written about this masculine god, he is forever idolized on archeological sites and murals, codexes and oral histories, an archetypal Mexican symbol of virility and strength, sexuality, power and resurrection. We took these traditional imageries and ideas of the revered Quezalcoatl and turned it on it’s head, stretching the myth into our current day and age, turning him into a goddess.

The collection mixes pop culture imagery with ancient myths, toying with how they imprint on our memories, recasting ancient and outdated masculine archetypes with playfulness.
