Treinta Caras De la Luna
Treinta Caras de la Luna
O old traveller, who never stopped revolving. Since eternity, you have witnessed our lives in majestic silence, dwelling in darkness, with your luminous energy of love.
Hence, you have many names, “Khonsu'' or “The Traveller” for the ancient Egyptians, ''Celine” in Greek culture and “Luna” for the Romans. The Chinese call you “Chang” and “Tsukuyomi” in Japanese culture, while the Indians call you “Chandra” and in Babylon, they called you “Sin”, and the Arabs called you “Wed or Amiability”.”
The moon has been a source of many myths and stories in different cultures. Since we were young, we have seen many imaginary faces on your surface. We did not know “Pareidolia” yet! We did not realise that the black spots on your face are mountains and craters from the impact of meteorites and meteor showers.
The moon is a source of energy, light and love that inhabits the consciousness to the point of “Selenophile” and invites the viewer to a world of imagination, where they can contemplate the universe.
