Marimonda is about deceptive beauty, a punishing and vengeful beauty that kills those who attack Nature. Dazzling the intruders with her silvery light, this long haired Medusa strangles as she mercilessly laughs at the results of her power.A folkloric legend of Latin America, she is the much feared mother of the bush who it is dangerous even to name.The veils are meant to cover and uncover bodies as in a ceremonial dance. Frogs , toads, snakes, giant ants, spiders, lizards crowd around auspicious crowns worn around the trusting heads of the young participants, perhaps in a fantastic ritual meant to appease the pain and the fury of a ravaged land.
