DescriptionThe brooch is made of white paper, two cut-mesh square, and metallic thread. There are circular perforations in the shape of two triangles: one equilateral triangle and another which extends off of the brooch. A mesh square with red metallic threads extending vertically is on the left side of the brooch. Another partial mesh square (triangular, as it has extended off of the brooch) has blue metallic threads extending vertically, although some have relaxed and are wilted.ProvenanceThe artist, Pittsburg, KS, 1983-2016;
