#tlazolteol

Tlazolteol is the Aztec goddess of vices and purification. She would give diseases to people who over-indulge but she would be able to get rid of diseases by eating them. In a lot of her depictions she dons a jaguar skin and feathers so I worked with that.

I am evil. I am the filth goddess Tlazoltéotl. I am the swallower of sins. The lust goddess without guilt. The delicious debauchery. You bring out the primordial exquisiteness in me. The nasty obsession in me. The corporal and venial sin in me. The original transgression in me.
