DescriptionA serigraph on tan paper with metallic foil stamping depicting a headless, nude, female body upside down against a peacock feather background. The woman has light-colored skin, eyes on her torso and feet, and metallic silver stripes on her thighs. The peacock feather background surrounds the lower half of the woman's body in a oval. The peacock feathers are covered in metallic blue dots, with two metallic purple dots in the lower left. The feathers morph into bird heads on either side of the woman's body and there is a metallic gold phallic shape in the upper center. The peacock feathers are surrounded by concentric ovals which fade from yellow at the top to turquoise at the bottom. At the bottom of the composition is a short, wide rectangle filled with yellow, black, turquoise, and white quadrangles.
