Juan Carlos Chavarria
verifiedDescription
The Artist is inspired by the Southern Cross or Andean Chakana, an ancestral symbol that in Quechua means “ladder” or “bridge between the human and the greatest.”
Used by Andean cultures, including the Incas and has multiple explanations. It alludes to respect for ancient wisdom and the center is a catalyst, which transforms everything towards to the light…
“It is not enough to achieve wisdom, it is necessary to know how to
use it.” -Ciceron
