Small Red Huichol Skull 'Red Scorpion'
"In Huichol cosmology, the scorpion or tortuka is considered a protector and ally. Red scorpions grace both sides of this wonderful papier mache figurine from Miguel Diaz in Mexico. The patterns are created with the application of tiny glass beads which are added one by one, using beeswax as an adhesive. The Huichol or Wixarika are an indigenous people in central western Mexico."
