Agua Caliente, Machu Picchu, Peru

Bronze and Stone

3.5h x 1.2w x 1.2d m (11.5 x 4 x 4')

70 bronze panels and a condor depicting the history and culture of Andean man. Rogers' brief from the Machu Picchu City Council read "The work of art must be like having emerged by the hands of God; esoteric in sense, in other words, secret, magic and sacred, that is able to touch the less sensitive spirits, and enter the depths of the minds of the villagers of this province, so that the children will know that the sanctuary of Machu Picchu is a history written by the parents of our parents."
