Chimborazo illustrates the inactive stratovolcano of the same name that is located in the Andes mountain range of South America. Chimborazo's peak exists uniquely as the furthest point from Earth's center. Sitting in the Ecuadorian Sierra, local folklore identifies Chimborazo as a son of Pachamama (Mother Earth). The riches bestowed on Chimborazo by Pachamama inspired locals to build their communities around the volcano. The colors used in this piece were meant to explore the vibrancy of these communities who live and grow around Chimborazo for as long as Pachamama will allow.
