Xiuhcoatl’s Story

Xiuhcoatl, also known as the turquoise serpent, was believed to be the spirit form of Xiuhtecuhtli, the Aztec fire deity. A common subject of Aztec art, it was represented on the royal diadem of the Aztec emperors.

This piece of fir tree wood was found in the Bucegi Mountains, close to Valea Dorului (Vânturiș Mount), on a chill winter evening. I came across it as the sunset was casting its last rays of light onto the mountain.

 

The Crafting Process

This piece of wood was not cut from a living tree. It was found dry, on the ground. 

It needed cleaning, washing, brushing and sanding. It was also treated against harmful insects, pests and mold.
