ENCANTAMIENTO
This piece depicts the rising moon lighting up the majestic Organ Mountains anchoring and protecting my hometown, Las Cruces, New Mexico.
The colors are authentic, as anyone who has witnessed a full moonrise at sunset from the West Mesa can attest.
The plant in the foreground is called the soaptree yucca (yucca elata in colonial Spanish) and is native to New Mexico.
Indigenous tribes such as the Apache, Navajo (Diné), and Zuni have used yucca for soap, fiber, food, and ceremonial purposes for centuries. The plant holds practical, medicinal, and symbolic importance in these communities.
Here, pregnant pods beckon skyward, ready to burst and bear their summertime blossoms, a beautiful gift from the Land of Enchantment.
