Tláloc
Shorts animation, 2025.
Tláloc was born from a personal fascination with Aztec mythology and its powerful connection between water and life. In this animated short, I explore the figure of the god Tláloc not as a distant entity, but as a living presence, with soul and matter, amidst the rains that nourish the earth and the storms that shape the human spirit.

The animation is constructed from an intimate perspective: liquid textures, flowing strokes, and cadences of sound evocative of rain and thunder. Each shot attempts to capture that moment suspended in the air—a drop that anticipates the storm, a spark that ignites memory. The visual rhythm seeks to reflect Tláloc's duality: generator of life and, at the same time, bearer of fearsome power, reminding us that water is both a source of support and an indomitable force.

As an independent project created entirely by me, every decision—from the character design to the palette and soundtrack—is an act of direct dialogue with ancestral tradition. My purpose is to activate a contemporary perspective on the mythical, to open a bridge between the sacred and the everyday, so that Tláloc's rain may resonate again today: in the fields, on the asphalt, in our emotions.
