Kuiz has gone through a rigorous spiritual initiation that lasted more than thirteen years. He is the last person to have been anointed as a Teopizque (or priest) within the Mexica tradition. His art, like himself, has evolved over the years, yet cultural symbols and themes are a constant in his paintings, as well as the depiction of nature from the perspective of someone that clearly sees and understands it in a much more profound way than most people do. At this later stage of his life, Kuiz has practically retired from his participation in social movements or spiritual work with others and is fully dedicated to doing what he loves most – painting.
