The image displays a large, vibrant wall graphic or mural titled "TXihi" by artist Denilson Baniwa, located within the Museu do Futebol (Football Museum) in the Pacaembu neighborhood of São Paulo, Brazil. The artwork features two central stylized figures against a light grey background: an indigenous human and a jaguar. The human figure, depicted with medium-brown skin and long dark hair, is shown from the waist up in a kneeling or seated posture, with both hands on the ground. This figure wears a black and white geometric patterned headband, a white beaded necklace with a distinctive white abstract pendant, and white armbands on the upper arms. A light-colored, pleated skirt covers the lower body. The face expresses profound distress, with an open mouth appearing to cry out, and two visible tears streaming from each eye. To the left of the human figure, a stylized, orange-brown jaguar with prominent black spots sits on its haunches. Its mouth is wide open, displaying white teeth and a pink tongue, indicating a roar or cry of distress. The jaguar also wears a simple white necklace with a small, pointed white pendant. The background is uniformly light grey, densely populated with numerous small, brown and orange truncated cone shapes, representing tree stumps. A few bare, dark brown tree branches are visible on the lower-left, near the jaguar. The scene collectively conveys a theme of deforestation and its emotional impact on indigenous communities and wildlife. Above the mural, an indoor ceiling is visible, characterized by light green or yellowish-green acoustic panels with perforations, and a grey metal conduit pipe running horizontally.
