“This artwork is a representation of a woodpecker that loves to steal corn seeds, especially during the sowing seasons or when the corn cobs start emerging. In my childhood, I always considered it as a nahual bird. Even though we took care of the cornfield or made noise, it always managed to enter like a ghost to take away the seeds.” – Antún Kojtom
