Here is one of my smaller paintings: 'Insomnia Due To Impending Sacrifice', oil on canvas panel, 52x47cm. A depiction of a night of anxiety, with inspiration from the Biblical sacrifice of Isaac. I charred the inner frame to carbonise it. #art #painting #oilpainting #sacrifice #isaac #surrealism

Skull mask human skull covered in turquoise, carnelian, shell mosaic c.1500 CE Aztec Mexica Mexico #handmade #votiveskull #mosaicinlay #turquoise #carnelian #shell #tezcatlipoca #thesmokingmirror #ritual #religion #magic #aztec #sacred #mask #sacrifice #fertility #offering #protection #victory #art

The National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City houses a remarkable mosaic skull adorned with turquoise, carnelian, and seashells. This artifact exemplifies the intricate craftsmanship of Aztec artisans and underscores the cultural significance of turquoise in Mesoamerican societies.
In Aztec culture, turquoise was highly esteemed, often valued above gold. Its vibrant blue-green hue was considered sacred, symbolizing the divine. Artisans skillfully incorporated turquoise into various ceremonial objects, including masks, shields, and jewelry, reflecting its esteemed status.
The mosaic skull serves as a testament to the Aztecs' artistic sophistication and their reverence for turquoise, offering insight into the spiritual and cultural practices of ancient Mesoamerican civilizations.

Ballgame Thin Stone Head (Hacha) carved stone, pigment c. 600–900 CE Veracruz culture Gulf Coast, Mexico #handmade #carved #stone #head #hacha #veracruzculture #gulfcoast #mexico #mesoamerican #ballgame #ritual #religion #sacrifice #burial #offering #tomb #precolumbian #prehispanic #art #sculpture

A tapering headdress, its base formed by a grotesque head with upturned snout, soars above a human face in this elegant thin stone head. Such heads, known as hachas, probably were used in ballgame ceremonies, though how is unclear. Equally obscure are the heads’ identities, perhaps heroic, idealized players, ballgame patrons, or characters from the game’s lore. The large area of red pigment on one side may have been sprinkled onto the head after it was buried in an offering or a tomb.

Sacrifice Sacrifice is a migrant, Who vanishes in workforce, Their toil a generous grant. Sacrifice is a statesman, Who cedes power for conscience, So history may keep its plan. #poetry #poemoftheday #photo #sacrifice #blueskypoetry #Photography #duty #blueskyphoto

How does one measure a life? A life of service of sacrifice? Not all in battle but many fight to return home and find it empty. "Thank you" is not enough. #vss365 #Measure #FreeVerse #Poetry #Service #Sacrifice #Veterans #VeteransDay #ArmisticeDay #AppreciationBeyondWords

A disabled veteran, a double amputee, using a wheelchair, sits alone outdoors. He is wearing a knit cap and rolled up blue pants. Military duffel bags rest on the ground beside him.

#prism poem resounds both alike & unlike every inhale expanding the chest it tells of twilight when moments transmute from presence into memory hence night doesn't arrive all at once as if light must first #sacrifice itself before the world turns once more #vss365 #inkMine #poetry 📸 Ch. Spencer
