DescriptionA painting divided into three separate rows. The top row features a symmetrical geometric pattern in shades of blue, red, and orange. The next row has two red, orange, yellow, green, and black geometric forms on either side of a white and blue organic composition in the center. A line of alternating burgundy and pink squares lines the bottom of the organic composition. The bottom half of the image shows five Indigenous women standing in a row under a starry sky. They stand on a red and orange surface and are bordered by teal and blue bars on the left and right.On View
