"Itiba Cahubaba (Old Mother Blood)" (1981) is a powerful piece by Cuban-American artist Ana Mendieta. The work, a black and white photograph, depicts an imprint of the artist's body in the earth. The image, while simple in its composition, evokes a sense of primal vulnerability and connection to nature. Mendieta's "earth body" works explored themes of femininity, identity, and the relationship between the body and the land.
