Finished mural

This is the result of collaboration between Bhakti Baxter and I.

The project combines two renderings of the same subject; a gigantic active volcano near San Nicolas de los Ranchos in Mexico. The Mayans originally named the volcano Tlachihualtepetl meaning Man Made Mountain.
The image on the left is a GIS rendering generated by a team of volcanologists from the State University of New York at Buffalo.
The image on the right is a replica of a mural done by the people of San Nicolas de los Ranchos in the town’s square, which was also the official evacuation pick up site.
