“I didn’t know what had to happen to himself. The jaguar from the Naja jungle. The jaguar changes color with age, with shadow and light; it changed from black. It had spots. The jaguar didn’t want to have spots on its clothes, and that’s why it changed.” – Kayúm Ma’ax

Additional information

Kayúm Ma’ax, Maya/Lacandón artist, was born in Naha, Ocosingo, Chiapas, Mexico, in 1962. A self-taught artist awarded the Chiapas Prize in 1992. He paints with an eye trained since birth in the jungle environment, and an unprecedented narrative ability informed by the worldview and local history of Nahá (a population of 250 people) that has only been “open to the world” for about 50 years.
