Sacred Heart
Sacred Heart
Design: José de la O
Year: 2006
Materials:Ceramic.
Mexico is a very religious country, and the icon of the Sacred Heart is one of the
most catholic related icons. It is even used in a lot of tattoos in Mexican-american culture. I wanted to do an iconic religious
object, but taking away the catholic connotation, to re-define it in a pretty novelty object. The Sacred Heart has 3
icons that represent the Crucifixion Of Jesus : The crown of thorns, a bleeding sore and a flame.
