We chose the Temple of Debod because it is a symbol of Spain’s influence and sign of honor to the rest of the world. The Temple of Debod is an Egyptian temple that was reconstructed in Madrid, Spain. It was originally built in Aswan, Egypt to worship the god Amun. However, when the Aswan Dam was going to be constructed, the Temple of Debod as well as others were in danger of being destroyed. So instead of destroying it, Egypt decided to dismantle it and send it to Spain as a thanks for helping construct the dam. It was reassembled in Madrid just outside the Parque de Oeste. Carlos Arias Navarro inaugurated it in July 1972 and made it open to the public for all of the Spanish citizens and tourists to see the ancient temple and walk on the outside area of the temple which is also perfect for watching the sunset.

Through this piece I hoped to represent how the hispanic culture of the past holds and feeds the Hispanic culture of the present and future. To begin, the vase depicted is a recreation of a Socorro style vase. Which was an artistic style of ceramic creation in South America circa 900 A.D. - 1350 A.D. Next, to represent current and future Hispanic culture I chose to paint the national flowers of each Hispanic country. By doing all this, I hoped to create a symbol that represents how the creations of the past as well as the culture they represent help feed modern day Hispanic culture, so that it can thrive and evolve into its most beautiful form of pure human expression.

I chose the Mighty Galleon, as I think it represents a time when on the sea the mighty powers of the time clashed, and I think of the Spanish empire of that time. And how much they funded different adventures, plundered relics, and such. That is why I chose the Mighty Galleon for my work. This took me A fair few hours of modeling, printing, and painting the different aspects of the boat, which came out well.
