strong...

"revolucion" by francisco eppens

i bought this postcard in mexico city in march of 1986. i was spending a semester there immersed in a spanish language program offered through my university. i normally don't like images this raw with emotion, but something in this one spoke to me. perhaps it's the third arm rising from the back holding a machete. looks like the arm is part of a militant angel wing.

today i feel like i need to tap into whatever drew me to this image and channel it...fierce warrior, and vehement protector of turf.
