Madre Armadillo, Hayter Engraving Daniel Salazar, 2023
In this finely detailed metal engraving by Daniel Salazar, a mother armadillo cradles her young within a dreamlike geometry of scales, patterns, and protective curves. The composition — enclosed in a circle reminiscent of both a womb and a solar disc — merges scientific illustration with folk symbolism. Below, a flowering nopal anchors the scene in the natural world of Mexico, evoking both sustenance and resilience.
