An alchemical replica of Tonapoalli - Aztec ritual calendar, which translates the system, the deities and the logic of codex borgia into a feasible calendar that can lead the sudiences explore into the faded culture. The project was a transformed version of Codex Borgia, which convey various aspects and attributes of the 260-day ritual calendar. The more detailed ceremonial aspects of the images have been harder to understand. So this alchemical Tonalli serves as a bridge from our the daily usage of modern life to the mystery of this ancient codex.
