Becoming Quetzalcoatl

Description

My life has passed through special challenges. 4 years ago I was paralyzed, my health was in a critical condition, and everything I used to know changed too, I stopped studying, moved from the city I was living then, and started to go in and out of the hospital in an almost constant cycle. In that moment I wondered if everything was inviting me to transform into "Quetzalcoatl", I mean the snake with feathers.
The snake represents our human and mental aspect, the Quetzal is our sensitive and divine aspect, when we consolidate both, we become a balanced being. We die to reborn in a new and complete being.
My inspiration for this work, was myself and also a Mexican handcraft called "Alebrijes".
Painted and created from the beginning to the end with Photoshop CC.
