Serpents in Pre-Hispanic Art. There are few motifs in Mexican art that are as charged with meaning as the snake. It’s associated with life and death, earth and water, the world and the underworld. This exploration reveals the metamorphoses of a mythic creature in an aesthetic linked to the terrifying and the sublime.
