This egg-shaped sculpture was made from one single seamless copper sheet, hammered by hand. The exterior was patinated with gold leaf, while the interior was lacquered black. As a universal symbol of femininity, the egg embodies cosmic infinity. It was created as a tribute to the supreme god of Inca mythology Huiracocha.
