Filled with potent and powerful energy, this male fertility figure represents a rare art form in Valdivian created in the female image, representing the manifestations of the Mother Goddess. Here, however, we experience the masculine side of procreation in the form of a splendid male figure, whose spirited virility belies his small size. Sensuous to the touch and mighty in its emotive qualities, this male fertility figure celebrates the power and beauty of the life-giving force held within each and every one of us.
