Hohokimal Daha (Butterfly Sitting)

Inspired by the Tohono Oodham basket designs, the butterfly motif was selected by members of the Tohono Oodham community, area neighbors and stakeholders who also named the sculpture. The neighborhood association was so impressed with the sculpture that they used one of our butterfly drawings for their logo.
