Jiménez’s studio is in Cuernavaca, Mexico, where the Popocatépetl, the most active volcano in Mexico lies, heeds warnings from those nearby, reminding residents to respect and revere Mother Earth. Depicting the form of Diosa de la Fertilidad, the volcanic fertility goddess, emerging from the landscape exhibits the beautiful yet forceful way nature brings life through destruction. The geological phenomenon of volcanoes has been revered and feared for centuries as the potential of mass destruction also yields rejuvenating effects on ecosystems.
