Sacred Mayan Math by Francois Michel Beausoleil

Oil on plastic mannequin, covered in resin

This painting is from the series that I called, The Holographic Universe, a series about the Human Experience. A male mannequin representing the god of war or patriarch is painted in different Mayan scenes from Stellas and temples. In colorful shadows are some sacral geometries commenting on the Mayans knowledge of geometry, mathematics and astronomy.
