  • The video Metzilocan is composed in a non-narrative form and focuses on the figure of Chalchiuhtlicue and the Nahuatl words for water (atl) and moon (metztli). The sequence of images, clips, and text are of the Chalchiuhtlicue statue, the Pyramid of the Moon at Teotihuacan, and lush landscapes with picturesque waterfalls. An eerie, otherworldly score accompanies the video that layers distorted recordings of water with field sounds of birds and church bells.
