Sacred Sequins, Michoacan
An image of Christ unabashedly adorned with sequins and glitter, created by local nuns. This dazzling decorated image of Christ is displayed in tribute to the miracle of San Juan Nuevo: the village and church that was rebuilt following the destruction of San Juan (the original village buried beneath the ensuing lava flows), following the eruption of Paracutin in 1943. San Juan Nuevo, Michoacan, Mexico.
