This piece takes its name from the yucca plant that grows in my garden—Spanish Dagger. I explore the concept of natural defenses—how we, like the yucca, develop protective barriers in the face of vulnerability. The piece invites viewers to reflect on the tension between self-preservation and exposure, with its sharp forms and fluid textures offering a meditation on resilience and the delicate dance between strength and fragility.
