Set against a copper ground, black and white diamonds pulse with delicate patterning. The neatly articulated details nod to the continuing practice of Lakota quillwork—a form of embroidery using porcupine quills—which was traditionally done by women.

Throughout her Quiet Strength series, White Hawk foregrounds the enduring contributions of Indigenous women whose work is often excluded from art world discussions of abstraction.
