The historic paintings in Cacaxtla (Tlaxcala) inspire Angel Cerón in the crafting of this sculpture of a jaguar warrior. Believed to channel the courage and might of the jaguar, the warrior was highly revered by the Tlaxcalteca people of 600-950 A.D. The sculpture portrays the warrior wearing the jaguar's paw on the hands and feet, as well as a fabulous headdress. Working with yellow clay ceramic, Cerón creates a sculpture of infinite details.
