The lore behind the animation is based on the Mayan deity Ixchel, Goddess of Medicine, Moon, and Fertility. I wanted to do a piece inspired by Indigenous Latino beliefs and I was attracted to the meaning behind Ixchel, who was a protector for woman. I wanted to harness the ambience of power and transcendence around her using dramatic lighting and perspective and animated a moon to surround her to tie together the meaning of her powers.
