Lifedance - While on safari in Kenya, I was struck by the intricate and eternal dance of life and death between predator and prey. To depict that in this quit, I overlapped zebra stripes and giraffe spots in the middle and surrounded this prey with the tracks of the big cats: lion, leopard and cheetah. I then added the bones of their prey scattered about as we found them on the savannah. Hand-dyed cotton, cotton thread, wool and poly-cotton batting, Shiva paint stiks.
