Ana Mendieta, Untitled Work from the Tree of Life Series, 1976 often lumped in with the earthworks artists because it has a natural touch performed and photographed in a natural setting literally covered in earth and posing against a large tree; photographed in iowa and mexico she was born in cuba and emigrated to the united states at an early age. This pose is the errant pose; typical of early Christian art. She is communing with spirits, and making connections between her body and nature. -- source link
