Conceived as an altar for the spirit of the desert, this is a portal inspired in the well known ancient civilization deity of the Mexicas Itzpapalotl, the Obsidian Butterfly. The one that knows and embraces the shadow the duality as one. Shape relations, spaces and transform consciousness the altar is a place of contemplation, of being in contact with yourself, of observing movements guided by the sun and its shadows and we present a obsidian mirror, which serves as a solar lens and a cleansing energy tool.
