DescriptionA large scale print of a figure made from fabric and paper stands with outstretched arms and head bent forward with hair hanging down. Two matching fabric banners printed with designs and patterns in teal, black, gold and white, hang from each outstretched arm. The figure is dressed in a teal and black printed dress, gathered around the waist with a rope belt. This large scale work tells the story of the symbiotic relationship between the Yucca plant and the Yucca moth.
