Inti Raymin










































Every winter solstice, when the sun is farthest from the earth, the Incas gathered to pray for the Sun God's return. This annual festival takes place in the city of Cusco, Peru. Given the mercurial weather in Portland, it seemed appropriate to make our own original Inti (Sun God) masks. Perhaps they will come in handy for those rainy days to come?
