In the piece, the water figure is on the right, the sun figure is in the middle, and the wind figure is on the left and all look down on the earthly world of humans, plants and animals. The meaning of the particular piece is unknown but Vasquez's pieces are heavily influenced by indigenous legends, Mexican history, and the power of women.
