ABOUT THE ARTWORK
She Who Watches explores Native American spirituality, abstractly depicting a Plateau woman in traditional dress emerging from a geometric pattern, and represents a reverence for the earth. Artist Jo Fyfe created this piece to "activate the viewer's imagination, to look inward on themselves and to encourage one to think about what is important to all animals, peoples, and the environment."
This artwork was acquired for the State Art Collection in partnership with Kent School District.
