One of the many exciting reasons to visit St Louis – Maya and Muthic Sea Exhibit. The exhibit brings together over 90 works, many never before seen in the United States, offering exciting insights into the culture of the ancient Maya. Surrounded by the sea and dependent on the life-giving power of rain and clouds, the ancient Maya created fantastic objects imbued with the symbolic power of water. The exhibition presents four thematic sections - Water and Cosmos, Creatures of the Fiery Pool, Navigating the Cosmos, and Birth to Rebirth - that explores the different ways Mayan artists represented water, from setting religious narratives in watery domains to using shells and other exotic materials acquired through coastal trade networks.
