Description

Edition Number 17/100

Introducing SHOREMATES, a truly captivating sculpture that has the power to make you pause and contemplate its intriguing essence.

There is something undeniably mesmerizing about SHOREMATES. At first glance, it may appear as an odd pairing – the sea turtle and the great blue heron standing together. But upon closer inspection, you'll discover that these two creatures represent the most primal beings on our planet.

The sea turtle symbolizes our shared origins from the depths of the sea. With its slow movements on land, it only ventures ashore to fulfill the sacred duty of laying its eggs. However, in the water, the turtle becomes a graceful marvel, effortlessly gliding through the currents.

On the other hand, the great blue heron embodies the epitome of primitive flight. Its majestic presence evokes a sense of ancient wisdom and connects us with a bygone era. As these magnificent birds soar overhead, their airborne ballet reminds us of a distant past, transporting us back to a time long ago.

By bringing these two extraordinary beings together in this fused composition, SHOREMATES encapsulates the journey and reunion of "old souls." It hints at a deep connection that transcends time and space, suggesting that perhaps these two beings have encountered each other in past lives.

As the artist behind this remarkable sculpture, it was precisely this notion of united souls that inspired me to select these two magnificent creatures. Through their harmonious fusion, SHOREMATES serves as a tangible representation of the profound bond shared between them.

Allow yourself to be captivated by the symbolism and beauty of SHOREMATES, and let your imagination wander as you explore the intricate intertwining of heron and turtle. This sculpture invites you to connect with nature's ancient past and embrace the timeless mysteries that lie within.
