One-of-a-Kind Sculpture — Maya Sky Ceremonial Series
“Maya Metallic Turquoise Sky” — Atlantis Studio Original
Dimensions: 14 inches tall × 10 inches wide
Maya Metallic Turquoise Sky is an extraordinary fusion of ceremonial elegance, sculptural depth, and vibrant contemporary color. Standing 14 inches tall and 10 inches wide, this vessel commands attention with its sweeping form, flowing headdress, and exquisitely etched surface—inviting viewers into a world where ancient Maya cosmology meets modern artistic brilliance.
At the center of the piece is a Maya ceremonial portrait, her features carved with precision and reverence. Her flowing headdress cascades across the vessel in rhythmic curves, echoing feathers, celestial rays, or liquid energy—a dynamic interplay that suggests movement, spirit, and ancestral grace. Each etched line contributes to her story, expressing the harmony between earth, sky, and divine presence in Maya iconography.
The vessel’s surface is infused with metallic turquoise accents—bright, flowing, and iridescent. These shimmering tones shift with the light, glowing between blue-green, aquamarine, and electric teal. The turquoise luminosity elevates the piece into a realm of spiritual energy, symbolizing sky, water, breath, renewal, and sacred life-force. The metallic palette transforms the ancient ceremonial image into a contemporary visionary form.
