The recent work of Daniel Lezama has the thematic core of Tamoanchan mythology, a utopian and Edenic region for the Mesoamerican people, in which origin and purpose wonderfully mix with life and history. In the series of pictures included in this book, Lezama has subordinated the mythological reference place of flowering ground to function as the central narrative of his painting. In a new set revisiting a themed painting from his early 90 s, Lezama has returned to the image of Adam and Eve."
