This series of works was created after studying the culture of the southern peoples, in particular the ancestor cult of the Incas. According to the legends, Inti, the god of the Sun was considered the god-progenitor and the keeper of the knowledge of all mankind. Known as "the possessor of sunlight", he`d dispelled the darkness and gave the light to people. Sun worship is a ritual that is found in almost every culture, and in its meaning is more than an explanation for a natural phenomenon.
Each of the works is a totem, a generalized symbol of an ancestor, which contains sacred knowledge, the memory and consciousness assembled throughout the history.
