Design inspired in indigenous mythology
The Maa’ala snake, also present in the “Isashii Collection”, refers to the totemic animal of the Uraliyu clan and is based on one of its myths. Following the Wayuu oral tradition, Maa’ala was a young woman, who refused to marry. So, she was bewitched by a man in love with her. Condemned to be transformed into a snake, Maa’ala preferred to live as a reptile and wander through the Caribbean desert, instead of bearing children and being a wife in the Wayuu polygynist society.
